Instead of a Show

We have spent the last three weeks studying some of the "minor" Prophets at OverFlow. It has been a great time of learning about Christ and how God continues to teach us new exciting things...from things even considered "minor".

Last week our focus was on Amos...much better than the cooke could ever be!
Read the words and listen to the song. Jon Foreman (switchfoot) "stole" the lyrics from:

Amos 5:21-24
21 “I hate all your show and pretense—
the hypocrisy of your religious festivals and solemn assemblies.
22 I will not accept your burnt offerings and grain offerings.
I won’t even notice all your choice peace offerings.
23 Away with your noisy hymns of praise!
I will not listen to the music of your harps.
24 Instead, I want to see a mighty flood of justice,
an endless river of righteous living.
I hope you had a wow moment when reading this and listening to the music. Praise God!
