Ukuze uqhubeke upheqe ngenkathi ulalele, dlala umsindo ewindini elisha.
This is part one of four on a series on the book of Jonah. In this first chapter Jonah is called to head east to the city of Ninevah, but instead of going east he flees from God and goes west to Tarshish. When God calls us, He often asks us to come closer to Him, and we run the other way. Why do we do this? As we'll see, in trying to save ourselves we often lose more than we had imagined.
