"If you set out to build the church, there is no guarantee you will make disciples. It is far more likely that you will create consumers who depend on the spiritual services that religious professionals provide."

Jonah is a lesson in educating a person to be a missionary: it reveals the need for radical conversion of one’s natural tendencies and a complete restructuring of his life to make it serviceable for mission. - Johannes Verkuyl

Oh my dang! I typically refer to Jonah as the Old Testament brat, and I believe the American Church may be the modern swallowed Jonah. Praying God allows us to be thrown up soon. And that we’re a little less bratty.
