The Common Thread, Part 6

We are headed to Joppa this week in our Common Thread series. There we’ll look at two stories in the Bible that had different outcomes. Jonah and Peter were both called by God to proclaim His Truth. One obeyed gladly and was blessed. One obeyed begrudgingly and missed out on joy. It’s a valuable lesson for all believers in Jesus. We’ll also hear about some news surrounding Israel, and a dramatic reading from Holocaust survivor, Zvi Kalisher in Apples of Gold.
