   It is great that the Old Testament reading was the focus of an Evensong Sermon. I was intrigued to read about scholarship using the physical history of an earthquake to confirm the setting and relevance of the prophet Amos. It shows how God engages with humanity at specific times and places through prophets to bring hope (not doom) where it is needed. Also helpful to learn about the pedigree of ‘The Day of the Lord’ – a concept that resonates with Christians millenia on from Amos.
