In this book of Joel, we will dive deeper into the Minor Prophets category to discover what God spoke through the prophet Joel. As we journal through this book, keep in mind how this is distinct from the other prophetic books. What makes this book unique?
In this book of Hosea, we will learn a lot about the kind of love that God has for His people. He loves you like a husband loves a wife, and how a father loves a child. Do you see any other examples of God’s love in this book?
