23.41 Hezekiah, the King After God's Own Heart (Part 1)

Today begins a multi-episode journey into the life and times of King Hezekiah, who was know as one of the most godly kings of the Children of Israel in all of their recorded history.  This series begins a larger journey into the lives and times of a number of Israel's human leaders and covers both those who were regarded as good and godly leaders and those who failed miserably in the eyes of God.  The good ones were committed to the authority of the Scriptures in their lives and led their people away from syncretistic practices while the failed leaders would bring God's people into syncretistic practices.  Hezekiah, we'll soon learn, restored true worship in the house of the Lord, destroyed all the sacred objects that his wicked father, King Ahaz brought into  Israel's life, and did many other things that brought God's favor.  Join Craig and LaDonna as they take us into the life of this man of God in this brand new series they are launching today.  Leadership mattered back then and it matters today.  May we learn from the Word how we are to judge those who serve among us today, whether that be in government or in the church.  Come with an open heart and an open Bible!
