In this sobering episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures, we explore 2 Kings Chapter 21, where the reigns of Manasseh and Amon mark a spiritual low point in Judah’s history. These kings rejected God's commands and introduced rampant idolatry, injustice, and even child sacrifice, defiling the very temple meant to honor God. Despite repeated prophetic warnings, their disobedience sowed seeds of national ruin. Today’s reflection considers the lasting consequences of moral compromise, the weight of leadership, and how generational choices can echo far beyond our lifetimes. Tune in as we draw powerful lessons on the responsibility to lead with integrity, resist cultural idols, and course-correct before it’s too late.
