Reflections with Andy - Lament and Repent - Joel 1

What is a prophet? What do they do?  What is their task?  As we begin our time together in the minor prophets, we start first with Joel.  We look to Joel, and we see great brokenness.  In the face of that, we cry out to God. There is a great plague of locusts that are destroying everything in Joel’s time, and that will bring great destruction. In the midst of that, all we can do is turn to  God out of our pain, our hurt, and our loss.  This brokenness in the world can also lead us to understand the brokenness in ourselves. With that, we are led to repentance and to the healing of God’s Spirit.  Join us for our daily reflections with Andy. In 10 short minutes, he'll dig a little deeper into Scripture and help you better understand God's Word.If you'd like to receive this daily reflection on your phone, text @39110 to 81010 to sign up.
