"Malachi: A Call to Spiritual Renewal" - Malachi 1:1-3, 6-8, 13-14; 2:10-11, 13-14, 17-3:1; 3:13-16; 4:4-6

Pastor Scott brings to conclusion our winter/spring sermon series through the minor prophets as we arrive at Malachi. Malachi is the last of the minor prophets, and the last recorded prophetic voice to God’s people prior to the New Testament. His ministry took place most likely in the mid 5th century BC, and his priority was a call to spiritual renewal. After decades of being back from exile, God’s people had slowly drifted from their initial enthusiasm. Disillusionment and cynicism had set in. God sent Malachi to call them to renew their faith, obedience, and hope. His is an important word for God’s people today.
