Morning Conversations on the Prophetic Word – By Jon R. Roebuck
Welcome to Volume 4 of a 5-volume collection of devotional thoughts drawn from the pages of the Bible. Morning Conversations on The Prophetic Word takes the reader through all the writings, proclamations, and predictions of the Major and Minor Prophets of the Old Testament. As in the previous volumes, I invite you to join with me in a fresh devotional read through the pages of the Old Testament text. My goal in writing is not to exhaustively interpret, translate, or provide full commentary on every chapter of the Old Testament, but to help you engage with the text and perhaps draw some meaningful application for each day. I have discovered many fascinating ways the truth of God’s Word leaps off the page and into my own heart. It is my hope that some of my reflections will help you with your discovery of scripture and the role of faith in your life. I use the word “Conversations” with great intentionality. I think Bible study should happen that way. God is revealed to us through the stories in scripture, and then we reflect and offer back the thoughts of our hearts. It is a conversation… a back-and-forth dialogue. Conversations invite us to ponder, reflect, inquire, learn, and grow.
As you read these volumes, I hope you will take time, not only to read what I have written, but to reflect with me on what the ancients have written. Allow me challenge you each morning to take a few moments to read the suggested focus chapter from a trusted translation before you dive into the words I have written. Read and reflect. As you make your way through this book, and the other volumes in the set, you will discover a lot of my life story written into these pages. But more importantly, I hope you will discover a lot about God’s story... the one carefully crafted and preserved for you. For in hearing God’s story, you will hear the echoing refrain of God’s desire to know you, to love you, and to redeem you. Welcome to the conversation.

Morning Conversations on the Creation of a People and Place is the first volume of a set that follows the natural order of the Old Testament canon, and spans the Biblical narrative from the opening chapter of Genesis to the end of the book of Ruth.
