Join Julia Jeffress Sadler as she takes us on an incredible adventure in Episode 119. We explore a story from the book of 2 Kings in the Bible, focusing on the downfall of Israel during the reign of King Hoshea. Despite witnessing God's miracles and receiving His commandments, the Israelites, led by their king, turn to idol worship, creating shrines and offering sacrifices to false gods. This disobedience leads to severe consequences when King Shalmaneser of Assyria attacks Samaria, capturing the Israelites. This tragic event serves as a divine punishment for their persistent sinning and breaking the covenant with God. We'll learn how even Judah, the remaining tribe, falls into sin, leading to God's withdrawal of His protection.
