Description
Book SynopsisUnique picture books vividly introduce the major truths of the Minor Prophets
God’s Daring Dozen is the first children’s picture book series ever published on the Minor Prophets. The twelve books between Daniel and Matthew are unfamiliar to many believers, so this series accurately introduces these inspired writings with vivid images and simple words that engage children and adults alike. Each volume both retells the prophet’s message to his original audience and relates its rich truths to Jesus and God’s people today.
This first boxed set contains:
- Haggai’s Feast, which teaches obedience and encourages courage
- Habakkuk’s Song, which teaches trust and deepens faith
- Zephaniah’s Hero, which teaches repentance and promotes righteousness
- Obadiah & the Edomites, which teaches humility and offers hope
- Subsequent sets will include Hosea, Joel, Amos, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Zechariah, and Malachi.
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!
Trade ReviewToo many people—kids and parents—miss out on the rich truths of the Minor Prophets. So I am happy to recommend God’s Daring Dozen by Dr. Wright and Pastor Brown as a rich resource for young and old alike. This fresh look at an overlooked book will bless you and your children.

Brian Wright and John Brown provide beautifully crafted and compelling renditions of the Minor Prophets in ways that we and our children can understand better the powerful message of these books of the Bible. They carefully uncover the ancient context of these messages while bringing them forward to our day, and in ways our children can understand. I have no doubt of the tremendous benefit these will prove to be for countless Christian parents and churches.

The entire Bible, even the section called the Minor Prophets, is relevant for God’s people, including children. Kudos to the authors for making the Minor Prophets accessible to children through these illustrated, engaging summaries of each of the twelve books.
