Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi—the often ignored Minor Prophets—delivered the next-to-last word to God’s people. That is, these prophets pointed Israel to Christ, the supreme and final Word, and warned them against rejecting Him. Underscoring the truth that studying this portion of Scripture is profitable (2 Tim. 3:16), Michael Barrett helps us discern the relevance of these prophets for today. He explains the prophetic office, the historical setting of the postexilic books, and their contributions to God’s overall redemptive message before considering the specific messages of each of these books in depth. Study questions at the end of each chapter enhance individual and group Bible study.

______________

For many Christians today, the Old Testament is difficult to understand, seems outdated, and has questionable relevance. But, as Old Testament scholar Michael Barrett points out, all Scripture is inspired by the Holy Spirit and we must read it by faith, seeing that Christ is the key to unlocking the Old Testament’s message. With great knowledge of and contagious passion for the Old Testament, the author shows readers how to identify basic characteristics of Christ and where to look for Him throughout the Old Testament. The author challenges us: “God’s promise throughout the Bible is that those who seek Him will find Him. Beginning at Moses and ending with Malachi, we want to be on Christ alert.”

______________

“A book like this could be so sketchy that it's not useful or so exhaustive that one is simply awash in a muddle of detail. But in length and depth Dr. Barrett's treatment of these three neglected prophets is—like Baby Bear's porridge—just right. He nicely balances the ‘what’ (explanation) and the ‘so what’ (application), and, while anchoring us in the historical context, he insistently and unabashedly keeps our eyes fixed on the Christ-centered hope they proclaimed.” — Dale Ralph Davis, minister in residence, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina

Not Dissapointed
This is one of the best books I have read on the anointing of the Holy Spirit, (God on flesh doing what flesh can't do). Brenda has so much good insight in this book, that I will be reading it more than once.

Got it — I’ll write you a strong, natural, insight-rich review I’ve been using these diapers consistently since my daughterwas born, and after several reorders, I feel confident sharing a detailed review for parents who are trying to decide. First, what really stands out is how lightweight yet absorbent they are. They don’t feel bulky when my baby is wearing them, which makes a noticeable difference in comfort—especially during longer stretches like naps or overnight use. Despite being light, the absorbency is reliable and holds up well throughout the day. One feature I truly appreciate is the quality of the inner filling. Unlike some other brands I’ve tried, the padding here does not become lumpy or uneven, even after extended wear. It stays evenly distributed, which not only improves comfort but also helps prevent leaks. Comfort overall is excellent. The material feels soft against the skin, and I haven’t noticed any irritation or redness. Another big plus for me is that these diapers are completely free of any strong odors or artificial scents. Some brands have a noticeable smell right out of the package, which I personally don’t like—but these are refreshingly neutral. Fit-wise, they stay in place well and don’t sag easily, even when full. That adds peace of mind, especially when we’re out or during overnight use. I’ve reordered these multiple times now, which says a lot. They’ve been consistently reliable, comfortable, and well-made. Based on my experience, I would definitely recommend them to other parents looking for a dependable everyday diaper. Overall, a solid choice that balances comfort, quality, and performance.
