Turn around or be turned over

Here's the link to the Sermon: Turn around! 

 

Reading: Jonah 3

1. How should we react when God gives second chances to a) others and b) ourselves?
2. God demands that preachers preach His message. In which ways might we fail to do that and what are the possible results?
3. Why do you think Jonah’s message was so effective?
4. What is true repentance? How can it be recognised?
5. Discuss fasting, what is it, what might be sensible things to fast from, and why?
6. If God is unchanging (Num 23:19), then why does he seem to change his mind here?
