The Assyrian people living in Nineveh had escaped by the skin of their teeth. If not for the message of a reluctant Jewish prophet named Jonah, they would have faced God’s wrath. But God had given them another chance.

Now, just a short time later, the Assyrians are cruelly oppressing God’s people again.

So God introduces a new prophet: Nahum. This time the prophet is not coming to help Assyria escape; he’s coming to bring “good news” for God’s people. But what’s the news? Why is it good? And what does it tell us about God and his character?

The short book of Nahum is not only fast-paced and action-packed; it also holds much for us to learn as Christians living in a world opposed to God.

Written by Ian Carmichael, Storming the City is an ideal guide to Nahum for individual Bible study or for use in small groups.

About downloadable files and group licences

If you wish to share copies of the study with others, or plan to read out the questions or explanatory text to a group, consider a group licence. A group licence allows for up to 15 copies of a PDF to be shared within one growth group, making it quick and easy to organise. Otherwise, adjust the quantity you're buying to match the number of people participating. Volume discounts still apply to digital files, and these discounts will be automatically applied at checkout.
