A Great Time to Be Alive

This is week two of our summer series on the minor prophets. Today we look at one of the Bible's shortest books, Joel. Its message of dire events being visited on the Israelites (e.g., a horrible, destructive plague of locusts!) serving as warnings to repent and turn back to God still holds value for us today. But there is also a healthy dose of hope for the present and beyond to be gleaned from Joel's message -- hope we can all benefit from today.
