Discussion Questions from January 16th, 2011 PM Sermon

Last night, at WBC, I was back in the "Not So Minor Minor Prophets Series" that I began early Fall 2010.

After having only preached on the book of Hosea, I proceeded with an overview of Joel in last night's message. It can be viewed or listened to here.

I provided an extensive outline of the book and for the message preached that can be found here as well.

Some questions to help you further think through Joel are:

1. What does Joel's name mean? Why is that significant for his task to the people of God?

2. Why did God send locusts AND the army of Assyria to attack the people/land of His people?

3. Read Joel. What are some specific ways God calls His people to repent? In other words, what does He want them to do to demonstrate repentance?

4. How does Joel's prophecy reveal Jesus: our need of Him and His provision for us?

5. What does Joel mean by the "Day of the Lord"? Who and how can endure the ''Day of the Lord"?

6. Bro. Matt mentioned 5 realities about God that Joel reveals. Which of the five speaks to you the most? Why?
