How a Little-Known Prophet Shines Light on Christian Faithfulness in a Troubled WorldDiscover the inspiring story of Micaiah, the little-known prophet whose brief appearance in the Old Testament offers a powerful model of unwavering faithfulness. In A Forgotten Prophet, readers are invited to journey through the dramatic events of 2 Chronicles 18 and 1 Kings 22, where Micaiah stands alone against kings, false prophets, and overwhelming opposition. His courage to speak God’s truth—regardless of popularity, pressure, or personal cost—foreshadows the ultimate faithfulness of Jesus Christ and challenges today’s believers, especially pastors, to remain steadfast in a culture that often values affirmation over truth.This book is a timely encouragement for anyone feeling discouraged or isolated in their Christian walk. Through vivid storytelling and deep biblical insight, A Forgotten Prophet reminds us that true success is not measured by acclaim or numbers, but by hearing, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” Whether you are a church leader or a follower of Christ seeking hope in difficult times, Micaiah’s story will inspire you to embrace your calling with courage, humility, and trust in God’s sovereign purposes.

”What do I like about Christopher Ash’s Forgotten Prophet? It is exemplary exposition—he pulls in other texts but rivets attention on this one story of Micaiah’s stubborn faithfulness. It is rightly balanced—it is both realistic yet bracing; he keeps us from both a naïve optimism and a dismal despair over ministry. And it is lastingly useful—he deals in solid principles of ministry not a bunch of flimsy ‘how-tos.’ Maybe the ‘forgotten prophet’ will be remembered after all!“Dale Ralph Davis(Respected Author and Old Testament Scholar)”Though small in size, this book overflows with what the average Christian—and especially Christian leaders—need in our often turbulent age. It can be read prayerfully in a single sitting, yet it offers instruction and example rich enough to shape a lifetime of faithfulness.“Jason Helopoulos(Senior Pastor, University Reformed Church, East Lansing, Michigan)”What a gift this book is, unfolding the brief yet significant account of Micaiah. In his customary form, Christopher Ash draws out lessons from this ancient account that are vital to pastoral ministry, and to every believer living in today’s world - while constantly pointing to Jesus Christ.“Matt Boswell(Pastor, The Trails Church, Celina, Texas; Hymn writer)
