Tonight's family reading · Surat

Jonah and the Second Chance — a 5-minute devotion for Surat families

Jonah 1-3 · God's second chances

Jonah was sent to a city he did not like, so he sailed the opposite way. A storm, a fish and three dark days later, he was back on the shore — and the word of the Lord came to him a second time.

This works best in Surat as a bedtime reading. Lights low, Jonah 1-3 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "god's second chances"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.

Memory verse

“Then the word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time.”
Jonah 3:1

Table question

Where do you need a second chance — and who could you give one to?

30-second prayer

God, thank you for second chances. Help us hand them out as freely as we take them. Amen.

Make it stick: let a child read Jonah 1-3 out loud tomorrow instead of you. Reading it to the family is worth ten times hearing it.

Tomorrow: Jonah under the vine (Jonah 4). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.

Question 1 of 33 left · ~30s

On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
