  • Two Directions.

    We make our lives complicated. This verse expresses and explains the simplicity of God. All of God’s principles and expectations are simple, but we like to “human” things up as I say. We complicate and nit pick, pick apart everything God has to say and respond… but God?!?

  • Rain that Renews

    Hosea was one of the minor prophets. This does not make the book of Hosea lessor because it is shorter. Interestingly, Hosea’s name means “salvation,” and it is appropriate for the book of Hosea. Hosea was possibly one of two prophets writing from the northern tribe of Israel (Jonah was the other). Hosea was a contemporary to Amos, Micah,…
