ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Shall I offer burnt offerings? Thousands of rams? My firstborn? Micah builds his questions to the absurd before landing on what God actually asks: do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with your God.
In this episode of I Love to Tell the Story, Rolf Jacobson, Kathryn Schifferdecker, and Cameron Howard explore the prophet Micah for Sunday, November 15, 2026, as the Narrative Lectionary continues its series on the prophets. With the northern kingdom fallen to Assyria, Micah dares to say Jerusalem itself is the “high place” and looks instead to little Bethlehem for a ruler from ancient days.
