Amos 5

 

In a culture marked by spiritual apathy, social injustice, political polarization, and self-absorbed living, Jonah and Amos speak with timely relevance for our lives in Denver today.

Amos is a shepherd from the south (Judah) sent to confront the elite in the northern kingdom of Israel. He denounces empty religious rituals, economic injustice, and societal complacency. Amos reveals how deeply God cares about righteousness, justice, and covenant faithfulness—and how His people can no longer separate worship from daily ethics.

Good News for the City (Luke 7:36–50)

 

This fall, we’re spending time in the minor prophets of Jonah and Amos. On Sunday, September 28, we finished Jonah, and next Sunday, October 12, we’ll begin Amos. In between, we had the privilege of hearing from Michael Goldstein on key themes throughout Jonah and Amos—justice and mercy—through the lens of a story from the Gospel of Luke.

Michael is the lead pastor of the Denver church plant, Fellow Citizens, launching in the spring of next year. Learn more at fellowcitizens.church.
