In this episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures, we unpack 2 Kings 15, a chapter filled with rapid royal turnover in Israel and a longer, steadier rule in Judah under Azariah (Uzziah). Though both kingdoms grapple with disobedience, Israel’s repeated assassinations and instability point to the dangers of rejecting God’s ways. We explore the ancient wisdom behind these patterns and their modern relevance—how personal faithfulness contributes to lasting leadership, why partial obedience isn’t enough, and how God’s hand remains steady even when human rulers fall short.
