#298: Manasseh and Amon

from True Wisdom

Wicked king follows the worse king of Israel who rivaled, and sometimes surpassed, the evil of the kings of the worst people of the land of Canaan. One of them God allowed to rule for 55 years and the other was only allowed to live for 2 years before being killed by his own subjects? Why the difference in treatment from God? Why was one allowed to lead Judah to sin for so many years and the other one cut off? Andrew and Robert read from 2nd Kings 21 and talk about the contrast and similarities between Amon and Manasseh.

Tao Te Ching by Laozi (Author), Stephen Mitchell (Full Audiobook) Laozi Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, is the classic manual on the art of living, and one of the wonders of the world. In eighty-one brief chapters, the Tao Te Ching looks at the basic predicament of being alive and gives advice that imparts balance and perspective, a serene and generous spirit. This book is about wisdom in action. It teaches how to work for the good with the effortless skill that comes from being in accord with the Tao (the basic principle of the universe) and applies equally to good government and sexual love; to child rearing, business, and ecology. Stephen Mitchell's bestselling version has been widely acclaimed as a gift to contemporary culture. Gear Tasting Radio Radio ITS Have you ever analyzed why you've chosen the gear you have?
