In this episode, Pastor Rhonda and Pastor Seth discuss the prophetic passage from lectionary. It is important to have some understanding of what a prophet was, and the situation they were walking into in order to get a clearer understanding of what they are trying to say. Amos came from the south, but ministered to the north. This was not very welcomed, but he did come with a warning. Either turn towards God, or exile will come. The people then have a choice. Listen and turn, or ignore and continue to head down the path of exile. There are many who claim to be modern prophets, but are simply trying to pad their account and build their wealth. How do we make sure that we are listening to people who are trying to lead us back to Christ? What do we do when someone challenges our ways of life that do not point to Christ? We hope these are all questions you will work through as you listen to this podcast.
