Part three of a 4-week mini-series called "How the Mighty Fall" inside our 31-week series, "The Story".
Hosea was called by God to marry a prostitute so that his life could be a message to the nation of Israel from God. Israel was grasping for salvation in anything they could get their hands on other than God - predominantly exemplified in their worship of false gods and idols. God shows through Hosea's life example that he ultimately wants a relationship with the spiritually adulterous nation.
