Good day, everyone, and welcome to the thirteenth episode of “Journey Through The Bible.” I’m your host, Pastor Mike Williams. Today, we continue our educational journey by exploring 1 Chronicles, the next book in our progression, building directly on what we learned from Genesis through 2 Kings. As someone passionate about sharing the truths of scripture, my aim is to keep this accessible and engaging, especially for those of you new to faith or just beginning to dive into the Bible. We’ll unpack 1 Chronicles step by step, highlighting its main message while weaving in deeper spiritual insights. 1 Chronicles is not simply a repetition of earlier history; it is a purposeful retelling of David’s reign and the preparations for the temple, written to encourage the post-exilic community that God’s covenant promises to David and the Levitical worship order remain valid and vital for their restoration.
