This episode continues the discussion of Jonah and what his reluctant obedience teaches us about our own attitudes toward evangelism and missions today.

• Jonah's need for a second command to "arise and go" after the fish incident reveals our own reluctance to obey God
• The bare minimum approach Jonah takes in delivering God's message parallels how we sometimes share the gospel without love
• Nineveh's repentance and Jonah's anger highlights our tendency to resent God's mercy toward those we deem unworthy
• Practical tips for sharing the gospel include keeping tracts handy and starting with simple conversations
• The love of Christ within us is essential for effective evangelism, especially when called to difficult situations
