Nobody wanted him there, if you read the story. In fact, he thought he was being ignored, so he went outside the city to watch the fireworks about to start.
He didn't know it, but at least one person was listening. The Bible doesn't say how many, but a congregation isn't comprised of an entire city with people milling about at random. Jonah didn't have a church, pulpit, or even scripture!!
So tell me, how was he even preaching, as scripture says, yet you state without a sermon using scripture, it can't be preaching?

You really should read your Bible, since it says that he went into the "midst of the city".
HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT PROPHECY [WHICH IS WHAT JONAH WAS DOING] IS A F-O-R-M OF PREACHING??????????? BUT IT'S N-O-T A "SERMON FROM THE SCRIPTURES," AS CONTEMPORARY WOMEN "PREACHERS" USE THE TERM TO JUSTIFY THEIR DISOBEDIENCE TO I TIM. 2, I COR. 14, ETC.............which you absolutely refuse to engage.
Put it in caps so that you can possibly understand it now..............Sheeeeesh!
