However

Jehu's story is one of the most dramatic and unsettling narratives in Scripture. Anointed by God to confront corruption and bring judgment on the house of Ahab, Jehu acts with decisive courage—but his story doesn't end the way we might expect. In this episode, we explore the violent events of 2 Kings 9–10, wrestle with difficult questions about divine judgment, and examine the tension between obedience and ambition. Why does Jehu begin so well and finish so poorly? What happens when our zeal for God becomes mixed with our own desire for power, success, or recognition? Along the way, we'll reflect on Jezebel's downfall, the consequences of compromised worship, and the sobering reality that accomplishing God's purposes is not the same thing as having a heart fully devoted to Him. This conversation invites us to consider a challenging question: Are we pursuing God's will, or simply using God's will to pursue our own?
