The books of Joel and Amos are referred to as "minor prophets" (based on the number of pages), but they contain some of the most fascinating and provocative prophecies you'll find anywhere in the Scriptures. The Book of Joel is devoted almost entirely to "The Day of the Lord". And the Book of Amos parallels the United States in a most disturbing way. Both studies are very timely for us today.
