Rev. Steven Theiss, Retired pastor in Frohna, Missouri, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Haggai 1.

This “minor prophet” says so much with so little. In chapter one he gives us the date in terms of Israel’s leaders: Darius the king, Zerubbabel the governor, and Joshua the high priest. Through names and ancestry, the last two figures point ahead to Jesus the Christ. Yet through the first name, we already know that things are not what they should be!God has sent a drought over the land so that His people would take stock of their priorities. Busily focused on themselves, they have left God’s temple a pile of ruins for fifteen years! Life is desolate when we leave the things of God a desolation. Yet God’s Word changes everything: when we “listen” by the power of the Word, God stirs up our spirits to action as the body Christ.
