Because of His Love
The sovereign love of God is the theme can summarizes the Minor Prophets. How else would God do what he has done?
The Clarity of Hope
We want to know how it fits in its own place in the book and how the book itself helps us to see more of God and Christ and ourselves and our world.
Haggai Is for Hope
Haggai says “almost but not quite.” He reminds us of what God has said, and he helps us to wait in hope.
Zephaniah for Americans
God judges nations, not just individuals. What does this mean for America?
Yet I Will Rejoice
We are living in trying times, and amazingly, Habakkuk, this little prophet, has something relevant to say to us in our day.
God Is in Control
The seventh book of the Minor Prophets is Nahum, which teaches us what it means for God to have control over all things.
He's Not What You Think
God brings charges against Israel. But instead of clear charges — like “You did this and that” — he charges Israel by asking questions.
Greater Than Jonah
What does it mean to faithfully bear God’s name? It’s not what Jonah did.
When Family Hurts
One of the great ironies of human love and relationships is that we experience the greatest hurt from those who are closest to us.
The God Over All
God will rebuild the raggedy old shack of David. This new kingdom will possess the remnant of mankind — those from every nation who seeks the Lord.
Images of Judgment
Though these prophets don’t all say they same thing, they do rhyme. There’s a rhythm and a pattern to their messages that we ought to understand at a basic level.
The Whores We Once Were
Metaphor is powerful. It integrates the invisible world with the visible. It helps us see things that are otherwise unseen. That is especially the case in the book of Hosea.
