Biblical scholars categorize the Old Testament books of Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi as part of the Minor Prophets, but the insights they offer into God and His character are anything but "minor". They present a unique, firsthand view of an all-powerful God who longs to intimately connect with His people, both then and now. Be prepared to gain a whole new appreciation for these men, for their commitment, and for the God they served.

Christians have a lifelong goal: to become like Christ. This involves change, and change isn't always easy. But the more you know of God's purpose for you, the more you can experience His joy and participate in His plan.

The LIFECHANGE series of Bible studies on books of the Bible can help you grow in Christlikeness through a life-changing encounter with God's Word. You'll benefit in these important ways:
