Minor Prophets: Nahum-Malachi (0T028B)

Dr. Randy Furushima

The prophetic books that comprise the “Book of Twelve” reveal the heart of God and the commitment of God’s people toward faithfulness. “Minor” refers not to their importance but to their length. The vivid and startling messages in these books will stir both our curiosity and imagination of who God is and what He requires of us. We will examine the final six prophets: Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi.

Ephesians - The Foundations of Discipleship in a Hostile Culture (NT010)

Mr. Ty Tamasaka

In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul the Apostle gives encouragement and instruction to a group of disciples in a culture overwhelmingly hostile to Christians. He calls them first to understand their identity in Christ, and then teaches how to live in light of that identity. In this course, we will journey with Paul the Apostle and discover our Christian doctrines (what we believe) about God’s great grace and our identity in Christ in Ephesians 1-3, followed by our Christian duty (how we live) including powerful lessons on Christian living including marriage, family, work, and spiritual warfare in Ephesians 4-6.
