Encouragement for the Discouraged

If we are honest, we all have a problem with priorities once in a while in our lives. The book of Haggai is a bit of an anomaly for the Old Testament, because Haggai’s message gets through to the people and they respond in repentance and finally obedience. This book stands out as an encouraging light of what can happen when God’s people listen to God’s word delivered through God’s preacher and experience God’s blessing. Defining our priorities in life should take its lead from the Bible and we hope to learn more from this short book of Haggai on how to live the Christian life.
