Their books are short. They have been labeled the “minor prophets.” And their messages are anything but minor. The prophets are sent to speak God’s Word, to be “loudspeakers” for God—not just in biblical times, but now!—confronting our sin and bringing us to repentance, in order to restore a right relationship with God. Luther doesn’t mince words about the importance of the prophets: “We Christians ought not to be such shameful, satiated, ungrateful know-it-alls, but rather read and use the prophets with earnestness and profit.” OK, then.

How would you finish the sentence: God is ______!
Faithful? Distant? Close? Real faith is rooted in knowing who God really is and this faith is the source of hope. The Writings are one of three sections of the Old Testament and a powerful expression of who God is!

A God who comes ever closer in love!
