In a special scramble episode, host Nate Tiessen and guest Joe Kraftchick read the book of Jonah, and then ask each other surprise questions. The discussion includes establishing the protagonist (10:07), the captain and sailors as underrated characters (12:44), whether the book is a historical narrative (16:39), the original audience and their equivalent today (22:05), a messenger saying no to the call of God (26:28), the past tense of Jonah's psalm (28:33), Nineveh's role as the foreign city in this story (31:40), God changing his mind (34:58), Jonah's influence on the Gospels (40:43), the theology of Jonah (44:57), which Jonah chapter is best to preach on (47:57), and the final 'takeaway' from the book (51:06).
