Blemished: How the Message of Malachi Confronts Empty Religion - Member Book is a small group study of Malachi, designed to motivate Christ-followers to remember that God desires a deep level of obedience from His people who are still called to bring unblemished sacrifices before Him.

And it wasn't good news.Features & Benefits:5 session format that allows for engaging discussion centered around practical application of the biblical textUnique design that intentionally cultivates connection between group members as well as individual group customization.
