God's Daring Dozen is the first children's picture book series ever published on the minor prophets.

This second boxed set contains: Jonah's Journeys, which teaches compassion and encourages obedience. Malachi's Final Message, which teaches respect for and hope in God. Nahum and the Ninevites, which teaches the power and deliverance of God. Joel and the Locusts, which teaches repentance and promises renewal. The first set includes Haggai, Habakkuk, Zephaniah and Obadiah, and the final set will include Hosea, Amos, Micah, and Zechariah. God's Daring Dozen delivers enduring messages that are very much relevant today. These biblically faithful, theologically rich, gospel-centered books teach truth, promote virtue, and inspire faith in God and in His Son. The minor prophets offer major lessons for all ages, and their timeless truths are now shared in story book form for the very first time!

Colourfully illustrated retelling of the book of Malachi for 4-6 year-olds God had been so good to Israel, but they kept disobeying Him. So, God sent Malachi to tell them to turn back to him. He promises to send His messenger, who will purify the priests and judge the people who are doing wrong. He promises that if they will turn their hearts back to God, He will bless them. And God's promises came true - he sent John the Baptist to prepare the way of the Lord, encouraging people to repent, and he sent his Son, Jesus, to take away the sins of the world.

The book of Nahum in illustrated storybook form for 4-6 year-olds God is good, a strong refuge in times of trouble; He cares for those who trust in Him. But He will sweep away His enemies like a mighty flood and drive them into darkness. In the book of Nahum, God promises to punish the Assyrians, who had been oppressing Israel. Their capital, Nineveh, was full of murder and lies, so God destroys it. Nahum's name means comfort. God's people can find comfort in his prophecy, which shows how God will defeat all our enemies. He even sent His Son, Jesus, to defeat sin, death and the devil. Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Nahum is a minor prophet, but his book teaches major lessons. Brian Wright and John Brown show how we can learn about the power and mercy of God in this illustrated rendering of the prophecy of Nahum for 4-6 year-olds.

God had warned Israel long ago that this would happen if they did not listen to Him. Joel cried out to God, and God told him about "the day of the Lord", when God will come with his angelic army to set things right. He will judge the wicked but forgive everyone who is truly sorry and turns to Him. This minor prophet offers major lessons, teaching readers about repentance and renewal, two aspects of the Christian life as essential today as when Joel first wrote.

This Jonah picture book clearly explains this minor prophet for 4-6 year-olds God told Jonah to go to Nineveh and tell the people there to stop doing bad things and turn back to God, but Jonah ran away.
