The entire book of Jonah hinges upon a single concept: God’s mercy. The Hebrew word hesed (chesed) is at the focal point of Jonah, and if we miss the depth and importance of this concept, we will miss why Jonah is so rebellious to preach to Nineveh. In this study, Nathan walks through Scripture discussing the mercy and lovingkindness of God, why this attribute is at the heart of God, and what it means for our lives today.------------» Take these studies deeper and be discipled in person by Nathan, Eric, Leslie, and the team at Ellerslie in one of our upcoming discipleship programs – learn more at: https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/» Receive our free “Five Keys to Walking Through Difficulty” PDF by going to: https://ellerslie.com/subscribe/» For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/daily» If you have been blessed by Ellerslie, consider partnering with the ministry by donating at: https://ellerslie.com/donate/» Discover more Christ-centered teaching and resources from Nathan Johnson that will help you grow spiritually by checking out his website at: https://deeperchristian.com/

Encore: a repeated performance.As we approach the end of 2025, we decided to do an encore of eight episodes from the past six years. With a new intro for each episode recorded by Eric Ludy and Nathan Johnson, we hope these encores will stir your soul toward Jesus and introduce you to previous series that you can explore. Going After More (Leslie Ludy)Originally recorded in 2023 as a part of her series Victorious Living, Leslie explores what it means to remove our “safety cones” of self-protection and self-justification, and pour out everything for the glory of our King. We often hesitate to make ourselves fully available to God, but we must never forget that whatever safety cones He asks us to remove, it is always safe to place our dreams, our futures and our lives entirely in the nail-scarred hands of the One who died to save us.Explore and watch/listen to the series Victorious LivingGet the audiobook version of this series with the notes ------------Exciting SpecialsEric and Leslie's A Trip Down Memory LaneSign up for Ellerslie's Weeklong or Classic 5-Week Training before December 31 to get last year's pricing (pricing increases January 1)Get the Daily Thunder Live Teaching Series (as an audiobook with notes) for a discounted price for a limited time------------» Take these studies deeper and be discipled in person by Eric, Nathan, Leslie, and the team at Ellerslie in one of our upcoming discipleship programs – learn more at: https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/» Receive our free “Five Keys to Walking Through Difficulty” PDF by going to: https://ellerslie.com/subscribe/» For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/daily» If you have been blessed by Ellerslie, consider partnering with the ministry by donating at: https://ellerslie.com/donate/
