Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai, saying, “Go at once to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it, for their wickedness has come up before me.” But Jonah set out to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. Jonah 1:1

The story of Jonah and the Whale is a really significant one for a lot of us in Northcote UCA. It’s a story about the God who never lets us go, even if it involves calming storms, whale-herding, and beachcombing.

Join us on Tuesday 5/5 for BYO dinner 7pm - bring your own dinner, or buy something from one of the many takeaway options on the street - and the “serious bit” begins at 8. We’re done by 9:15

Just like everything else in Christianity, forgiveness can be understood poorly — and when this happens, things can go badly wrong, particularly when forgiveness is disconnected from truth-telling, justice and repentance.

A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. The crowds that went ahead of him and that followed were shouting, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest heaven!" Matthew 21:8-9

When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with strips of cloth and his face wrapped in a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go." John 11:43-44
