We run from God whenever we decide our way is better than His.

Jonah 1:1-3 (ESV) · Pastor Daniel Hicks

We meet Jonah, hear God's assignment, and watch him head in the opposite direction, fast. It'd be easy to make this a simple "obey or else" story, but that's not the real issue. Jonah's problem isn't logistics. He doesn't want what God wants. His refusal comes from a deeper place: he wants the right to decide who deserves mercy.
