Amos 9:11-12 “In that day I will raise up the booth of David that is fallen and repair its breaches, and raise up its ruins and rebuild it as in the days of old, that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,” declares the Lord who does this.

Sermon Discussion Questions
1. In what ways do Christians today commonly say the right things about God while living in contradiction to those truths?
2. What do we learn from Jonah’s prayer (2:1-9) about what true repentence looks like?
3. How does Nineveh’s response to God’s Word challenge our approach to evangelism?
4. What does chapter 4 teach us about God’s compassion for the lost? How might we need to grow as a church in this area?
5. How would you describe the book of Jonah in a short sentence or two? Why do God’s people need this book of the Bible? How has it brought encouragement to you so that you might have hope? (Ro. 15:4)
