    • 6 Pages

    Jonah and Nehemiah are two prophets that can teach us Christians a lot of life lessons and also how to deal with things when adversity strikes. The story of Jonah is one of the more well-known stories throughout the Bible, probably because we can learn so much from it in what is such a little book of God’s Word. It starts out with God telling Jonah to go to Nineveh, a great city that was weak in its beliefs. Jonah, instead of trusting in the Lord, fled to Tarshish. To get to Tarshish, he first…
