On we go with our summer road trip through the Bible! We are wrapping up the Hebrew scriptures / Old Testament this week with a look at the books of the prophets. There are a bunch! Four major prophets and twelve major prophets - distinguished as such by the relative length of their books. We're going to focus on the majors this time around. Even though all the books are unique, they share the characteristics of pointing out the call of God to righteous and just living, the failure of God's people to live thus, the consequences of both failure and repentance, and the promise of restoration by God after the hammer falls. It's a lesson in how to live as God's faithful community (or how not to).

Today's texts are brief selections from Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel, with nods to the twelve minor prophets.
