If God’s people had stayed close to him, there might have been no need for the prophets. God sent prophets at critical times to call the people back to their covenant relationship. Prophets proclaimed the consequences of continued sin, called people to repentance, and declared God’s faithful love. They also spoke of the future to shed light on current events and to reveal God’s plans and purposes.

It is nearly impossible to understand the work and message of Jesus without the prophetic books. In The Prophets: Messengers of God’s Mercy study, presenter Thomas Smith examines who the prophets were, their role during their time, and the meaning of their messages for our own time. In this 10-session program, discover how God is constantly calling you to a deeper relationship, as well as the ways you are called to be the voice of God to others.
