This 1997 series, Joel: Prophet of Gloom and Glory, examines the dramatic prophecy of Joel, one of the most vivid books in the Old Testament. With imagery of locusts, invading armies, and the “day of the Lord,” Joel’s words bring both a sober warning of judgment and a radiant vision of restoration. These talks trace how Joel’s message applies in his own time, in the first century, and in the future kingdom, showing how gloom gives way to glory through the saving work of God in Christ.
