Sunday School

Sundays at 9:00 AM in Common Grounds

Mining the minor Minor Prophets

The last 12 books of the Old Testament are known as “The Minor Prophets.” Of those, the six shortest are Joel, Obadiah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, and Haggai. Although brief, these prophetic pages pack a punch. As part of the full counsel of Scripture, they deserve our full attention.
For six weeks, the Adult Sunday School class will be mining these books to . . .
  • explore their themes and style, as well as likely authorship and historical setting.
  • identify connections between these writings and the theology of the New Testament.
  • consider how these ancient words speak to our lives of faith today.
Dates: 9/13 – 10/18
Time: 9:00 – 9:55 a.m.
Location: Common Grounds
Instructors: Rev. Richard Crocker, Rev. Chris Hammond, Clint Petty & Laura Ranson
