Living daily with the tension between the demands of his career and the desire for a godly life, Lanier recognizes the importance and challenge of finding daily time to spend in God's Word. He has discovered in the Minor Prophets a storehouse of wisdom and inspiration essential for his continued growth in faith, obedience, and understanding.In Minor Prophets for Living, Lanier takes us to a portion of the Bible often overlooked in devotional and inspirational literature, showing how the prophets of Israel and Judah have much to teach us today. For each day of the year, Lanier reflects on the words of these ancient prophets, relates their messages to the struggles facing Christians today, and concludes with a prayer connected to the day's insights.
