Blemished - DVD Leader Kit - Tapa blanda

This Blemished - DVD Leader Kit uses audio teaching, video, biblical articles, music, and other tools to help you facilitate a 5-session small group experience where you can learn what went wrong in the days of Malachi and lead others to avoid those same pitfalls. A Blemished small group can motivate Christ-followers to remember that God desires a deep level of obedience from His people who are still called to bring unblemished sacrifices before Him.

What's the last thing God said to you? What if He went silent after those words and you never heard from Him again? It wouldn't be the first time. After centuries of dreams, visions, and words from prophets, the Lord went silent. He said nothing for 400 years. The last word God spoke to His people, before the New Testament, is recorded in the Book of Malachi. And it wasn't good news.

Malachi is a book about unfaithful priests, half-hearted religion, and blemished sacrifices. It's about people who lived by checklists, performing spiritual acts without the engagement of their hearts. Blemished points out how many Christ-followers are following in the footsteps of the people in Malachi's day.
