      His zeal carried him into battle. His faithfulness won him honor among his people. His humility led him into friendship with the man who would become king in his place. David was a man after God's own heart. But it was the courage and selflessness of his best friend that opened the door to David's rule. A man of honor and deep faith. Jonathan

      Un hombre de soledad, que se sentía como en casa entre las colinas. Un hombre de convicción, que escuchó cuando Dios llamó. Un hombre de fortaleza, que habló con una nación dispuesta a escuchar. Los israelitas se rebelaron contra Dios y fueron devorados por la guerra. Pero primero, fueron advertidos por Amós, un profeta que se negó a dar la vuelta. Sea desafiado por este hombre fiel cuya historia nunca debemos olvidar. El Profeta es la historia de Amós y libro cuatro de la popular serie Hijos de Aliento sobre cinco hombres que cambiaron silenciosamente la eternidad.
