In this episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures, we delve into the troubling reign of King Ahaz of Judah, who abandoned godly practices in favor of idolatry—even sacrificing his own son. As war loomed, Ahaz chose to trust in Assyria rather than God, leading to spiritual and national compromise. We unpack the dangers of misplaced trust, the long-term impact of leadership decisions, and how modern believers can remain faithful in times of pressure. Join us for a timely reminder to anchor your hope in God, not in human power or cultural trends.
