In this episode of Arise + Abide, Sally and Curtis read and reflect on 2 Chronicles 31, where the joy of Passover leads the people of Judah into renewed worship, repentance, and generosity. After celebrating together, the people return home and immediately tear down the idols, shrines, and altars that had drawn their hearts away from the Lord. Their worship becomes more than a festival moment; it becomes a wholehearted turning back to God.

As Hezekiah reorganizes the priests and Levites and calls the people to support the work of the temple, the people respond with overwhelming generosity. Their gifts pile up in abundance, showing the blessing and provision of God among a people united in worship. Sally and Curtis discuss how God's abundance often results in "more than enough," and how true worship costs something: old habits, misplaced trust, personal resources, and daily surrender.

This chapter gives a beautiful picture of revival, unity, faithful leadership, and wholehearted devotion. Hezekiah's success is not merely political or material; his success is seen in pointing the people back to their true King, the Lord their God.
