If you would rather sit at home watching TV than tell the people of Nineveh to "Stop being nasty - or else!", you need to read Jonah's story. It has everything: boats, storms, worms and a really cool whale that eats people. This Story is based on: Jonah 1:1-4. Related Bible passages include: Matthew 28:19-20, John 3:16, Acts 10:34-43, Romans 5:6-11, Ephesians 3:18-19, Psalm 18:4-6, Psalm 42:7. The main theme is God's love. Other themes include compassion, grace, judgement, obedience, calling, repentance, love others, enemies and whales. When Jesus wanted to change lives he told stories. That's what the Lost Sheep series is all about. At the centre of the stories is Jesus. Some stories are about him, some are by him, but all of them point to him. The series takes the spirituality of children seriously but also believe the gospel is fun.
