The Story of God: The Northern Kingdom and Jeroboam’s Golden Calves | Week 5 | Save the Cowboy

From God’s view, the Northern Kingdom of Israel isn’t just a history lesson—it’s 200 years of calf‑worshiping pukes proving what happens when a nation builds its own religion and rides off from the real God. In Part 5 of “The Story of God,” we zoom out and trace the trail from Solomon’s drift and the split of the kingdom, to Jeroboam’s golden calves at Bethel and Dan, to 19 kings in 9 dynasties who kept the “sin of Jeroboam” alive while prophets like Elijah, Amos, and Hosea shouted for them to turn back. You’ll see how false worship, high places, Asherah poles, Baal altars, and partial obedience finally ended with Assyria riding in and wiping the Northern Kingdom off the map. This message is for folks who suspect they’ve built a comfortable, home‑made religion instead of actually following Jesus, believers who keep winning little battles but won’t lay down their favorite “calf,” and top hands who want to make sure their life points at the real God, not just at tradition.
