Description:
The next instalment in this collection of ground-breaking insights into the minor prophets.
God's Daring Dozen is the first children's picture book series ever published on the minor prophets. The twelve books between Daniel and Matthew are unfamiliar to many believers, so this series accurately introduces these inspired writings with vivid images and simple words that engage children and adults alike. Each volume both retells the prophet's message to his original audience and relates its rich truths to Jesus and God's people today.
This second boxed set contains:
- Jonah's Journeys, which teaches compassion and encourages obedience.
- Malachi's Final Message, which teaches respect for and hope in God.
- Nahum and the Ninevites, which teaches the power and deliverance of God.
- Joel and the Locusts, which teaches repentance and promises renewal.
The first set includes Haggai, Habakkuk, Zephaniah and Obadiah, and the final set will include Hosea, Amos, Micah, and Zechariah.
God's Daring Dozen delivers enduring messages that are very much relevant today. These biblically faithful, theologically rich, gospel-centered books teach truth, promote virtue, and inspire faith in God and in His Son. The minor prophets offer major lessons for all ages, and their timeless truths are now shared in story book form for the very first time!

Review Quotes:
Brian's and John's presentation of these undervalued books captures their messages in ways that young readers can grasp and very smoothly weaves them into the larger fabric of the Gospel. An excellent tool for helping children grasp and retain the Gospel as promised in these Old Testament books.
