Jonah and the Whale (Part 1) — A Lent Story for Catholic Families

What happens when we run from God?

As Lent approaches, join me for a powerful, story-style retelling of Jonah and the Whale, perfect for Catholic families.

In Part 1, we step into Jonah’s anger, his fear of Nineveh, the raging storm at sea, and the dramatic moment he is swallowed by a great fish. Why would a prophet try to run in the opposite direction from God? And what does that say about our own hearts as Lent begins?

This episode is ideal for:
• Bedtime during the first week of Lent
• Family listening on the way to school
• Preparing hearts for Ash Wednesday

In Part 2, we’ll discover what Jonah’s time in the darkness has to do with ashes, mercy, and the 40 days of Lent.
