I'm preaching from Joel chapters 1 and 2 tomorrow so I've made this short little video for the worship service.
The prophet Joel described of the swarm of locusts that had swept over the land as the coming of the Day of Yahweh (or the Day of the Lord.) It was a terrible thing, described in cosmic, end-of-the-world kind of language - but to read Joel's description of the locusts of his day as a prediction of a still future day of doom and gloom produces the kind of insanity we've recently seen within a small segment of the Christian community (cough, cough, Family Radio, cough, Harold Camping).
Let's try to keep it in perspective.
