b'Who, in their right mind, would say \\u201cno\\u201d to God, the only sovereign, omnipotent, eternal being in the universe? It seems like a silly thing to do. The fact remains, you and I say \\u201cno\\u201d to God more frequently than we would care to admit. The Bible is filled with stories about people who said \\u201cno\\u201d to God. We can learn something from these men and women. We can learn how to say \\u201cyes\\u201d to God. This Sunday, we start with the story of Jonah - a guy who ran away from God.'
