Little Lies, Big Damage: Why God Cares About The Truth You Tell

And yet, the city of Nineveh—the capital of one of the most brutal and violent empires in history—responded immediately. From the greatest to the least, everyone repented. The king took off his royal robes, covered himself in sackcloth, and called for a citywide fast. Even the animals weren’t allowed to eat or drink as a sign of mourning.

They didn’t ask for proof. They didn’t demand a sign. They simply believed. Jonah should have been overjoyed. But instead, he was furious.
