Join us this Sunday as we begin a new series on the Minor Prophets called Uncomfortable Truths.
The minor prophets are likely the most neglected section of the Bible – too uncomfortable for many modern-day Christians, too politically charged for those who prefer their faith safely ‘spiritual’, and too specific in their targets to be easily domesticated into inspirational content.
They name names. They identify systems. They speak truth to power at personal cost and without apology. And in an era of rampant misinformation, political cowardice, institutional silence, and the Church’s long history of baptizing what it should be challenging, the prophetic tradition has never been more relevant or more needed. God used these people because they were willing to say what nobody wanted to hear.
How might we be inspired by them to do the same in our own time and place?
What Uncomfortable Truths might we be willing to name?
The Thing Everyone Sees and Nobody Says
Amos 5:21-24
21 I hate, I despise your festivals, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies. 22 Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them, and the offerings of well-being of your fatted animals I will not look upon. 23 Take away from me the noise of your songs; I will not listen to the melody of your harps. 24 But let justice roll down like water and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
