Ahaz: A Bad King - The Book of 2 Kings and 2 Chronicles

Join Julia Jeffress Sadler as she takes us on an incredible adventure in Episode 118. Unlike his father Jotham and grandfather Uzziah, Ahaz strayed far from God, engaging in disturbing practices and worshipping false gods. When faced with threats from Aram and Israel, Ahaz makes a desperate alliance with Assyria, sacrificing Judah's treasures and integrity. His fascination with a foreign altar leads to drastic changes in the temple, further angering God. Despite his royal lineage, Ahaz's actions lead to a legacy of disgrace. Yet, there's hope on the horizon as his son Hezekiah takes the throne, promising a return to better days.
