1 & 2 Kings: Storm Clouds & Sunshine – Taste and See Volume 8

Description From the heights of Solomon’s glory in one united kingdom to its tragic division and sin, there are many lessons for us to learn in 1 Kings about surrendering the throne of our hearts to the King after God’s own heart. Encouraging! We then move into Part Two of the Book of Kings, called 2 Kings. Sadly, the story gets darker and darker until the chastening hand of God allows both the northern and southern kingdoms to be carried away into captivity. First goes the northern, then about 135 years later, the southern. The lessons contained here are powerful and practical. Yes, sin has real consequences. But whom the Lord loves, He disciplines. All throughout this book, God sent prophet after phophet to draw His people back to Him. May we heed the lessons found here and respond positively to God’s gracious appeals, His warnings, and, when necessary, His discipline.
