Hello everyone,
This weekend we begin a brand new six-week series on “The Book of Malachi.” This is God’s final word to Israel before the 400 years of prophetic silence leading up to the birth of Christ. This will be the last of the post-exilic books I cover before heading back into the New Testament. The title of this Sunday’s message will be, “Introduction To The Book Of Malachi” from Malachi 1:1-14. I encourage you to read through the attached “Digging Deeper” Bible study notes before Sunday to get the most out of the message.
