Zephaniah’s Hero

Too many people—kids and parents—miss out on the rich truths of the Minor Prophets. So I am happy to recommend Zephaniah by Dr. Wright and Pastor Brown as a rich resource for families. This fresh look at an overlooked book will bless you and your children.

Why not just skip Zephaniah? Because we might miss Jesus in the Minor Prophets, as Brian and John show us. Zephaniah is not about a man by that name. It’s about the gospel—God’s grace in sending Jesus!

Brian Wright and John Brown provide beautifully crafted and compelling renditions of the Minor Prophets in ways that we and our children can understand better the powerful message of these books of the Bible.

Kudos to the authors for making the Minor Prophets accessible to children through these illustrated, engaging summaries of each of the twelve books.
