Dr. Bailey’s first volume on the Minor Prophets, focuses on the book of Hosea with the theme of the Restoration of the Backslider. In this book you will see the heart of God in his compassion and steadfast heart of love to restore those who have fallen away. This study is an excellent guide to gaining a greater understanding of the compassionate heart of our Heavenly Father and to see the need to develop such a heart in order to gently, lovingly, and wisely lead the backslider towards complete restoration with their Father God.
