Overview of Micah

May 25, 2025    Patti Miller

In this introductory sermon, we explore the historical context of Micah's prophecies, and consider the concept of theocracy in ancient Israel. We learn that Micah prophesied during the reigns of Kings Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah - a time of spiritual turmoil for God's people. The sermon emphasizes the importance of understanding the Old Testament prophets in light of Jesus' fulfillment and reminds us that while Israel was called to be a theocracy, modern nations are not. Instead, we should consider how Micah's words apply to us as followers of Jesus today.
