Minor Prophets: The Why, the What, the Who & the Where of the Minor Prophets | Todd Arnett & Kurt Thielen

In this powerful exploration of the Minor Prophets, we're invited to journey through the last 12 books of the Old Testament. These prophets spoke to ancient Israel and surrounding nations, calling them to repentance and warning of impending judgment. Their messages, though millennia old, still resonate today. We're reminded of God's covenant with His people, established in Deuteronomy, and how Israel's repeated failures to uphold it led to divine judgment. Yet, even in pronouncing judgment, God's heart for restoration shines through. The prophets speak of the 'Day of the Lord,' a time of both judgment and blessing, and point towards the coming Messiah. As we study these books, we're challenged to examine our own faithfulness to God and to seek justice in our world, just as He does. Though we may face trials, like the prophet Habakkuk, we're encouraged to rejoice in the Lord regardless of our circumstances.Maps Used:https://thechurchco-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/sites/6864/2024/08/Minor-Prophet-Maps.pdfIntroduction to the Minor Prophets 0:00 - 3:00The Purpose and Context of the Minor Prophets 3:01 - 7:00Key Themes in the Minor Prophets 7:01 - 11:00Relevance and Application for Today 11:01 - 15:00
