The sermon for this day (Easter 2021) is based on Joel. Joel is one of the UnWandered Books (least popular for reading and study based on internet usage). The book is from the Old Testament and is one of the shorter (minor) prophets. There are only 3 chapters. He quotes from other minor prophets. This book begins with Joel's review of the actual events of their lives in the country of Israel. They have been plagued by drought, locusts, and famine. Chapter 2 switches to prophetic poetry and announces "the Day of the Lord" is near. In 2:12, he writes, "Yet even now" come back to the Lord, who is always near and waiting for repentance.
