Prophets: Preachers for God
by Tom McminnFrom the author to the readers: "God used spokesmen called prophets in a special way. He wanted all people to know he loved them and would provide for them if they remained faithful to him and obeyed his laws."

In the book, McMinn writes about each prophet in terms of their unique purpose. After writing about a prophet, McMinn asks the readers a question that is designed to encourage them to explore their thoughts and feelings about each prophet. The questions also ask the readers to apply their insights to their own lives.
