Be Concerned (Minor Prophets)
by Warren W. WiersbeThe truth in God's word illuminates the sinful state of our fallen world. And throughout history that insight has moved believers from conviction to action, to share His truth with a world in need, to burden us with a deep concern for people. But how can we translate that concern into effective ministry? The prophets Amos, Obadiah, Micah, and Zephaniah were each called to deal courageously and honestly with the sin around them. This study explores how their concern for people shaped their life-changing messages of repentance and redemption.Part of Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe's best-selling "BE" commentary series, BE Concerned has now been updated with study questions and a new introduction by Ken Baugh.
