 “Minor Prophets… Major Messages”   The Old Testament is divided into five sections: Law, History, Poetry, Major Prophets, Minor Prophets   The prophets focused on three sins: 1) Idolatry “Our contemporary society is not fundamentally different from those ancient ones… Whether office towers, spas and gyms, studios and stadiums, sacrifices are made in order to secure the blessings of the good life and ward off disaster.”  ~Tim Keller, Counterfeit Gods 2) Social Injustice Matthew 25:40 3) Religious Hypocrisy   Joel’s message is this: Repentance Leads to Restoration. Joel 1:14 Joel 2:5 Joel 2:11 II Chronicles 7:14   What we don’t remember, we forget.  What we forget, we repeat.
