In this episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures, we explore 2 Chronicles Chapter 11, where King Rehoboam faces a critical leadership decision after Israel’s division. Poised to launch a civil war against Jeroboam and the northern tribes, Rehoboam surprisingly chooses obedience to God over political revenge. Instead of fighting, he fortifies Judah, welcomes migrating priests and Levites fleeing northern idolatry, and solidifies his kingdom with strategic reforms.

What can modern leaders learn from Rehoboam’s restraint? This episode uncovers timeless wisdom about listening to divine direction, the strength of spiritual foundations, and the long-term value of self-control, preparation, and unity. Whether you're leading a business, a household, or your own spiritual journey, these ancient principles still apply.
