Though 1 and 2 Chronicles give us one continuous story, the emphasis in 2 Chronicles is somewhat different.

In 1 Chronicles the emphasis is the importance of the temple in national life - but in 2 Chronicles, the emphasis is the impotence of the temple in national life.

While 1 Chronicles emphasizes the importance of recognizing God as a nation, 2 Chronicles emphasizes the importance of following formal recognition with actual recognition in attitudes and actions.

Tragically, we see in 2 Chronicles th

1-2 Chronicles covers the same time period as 2 Samuel-2 Kings, but offers more and different detail because it was written for a different purpose.

What we know of the past shapes how we view our present and plan our future.

Michael continues our series The Big Book – Cover to Cover with an overview of 2 Kings. In this book we see the reign of 19 more kings in the Divided Kingdom, the transfer of leadership between Elijah and Elisha, and are introduced to a new prophet: Isaiah.

As we read about the faith of the prophets and failures of many of these kings, we're prompted to ask: where do we turn in times of trouble? Do we seek answers from our own resources, worldview, network, friends?

May we learn to first inquire of the

Dr. David Lamb joins Michael to talk about the books of 1 and 2 Kings.

Dr. Lamb is an associate professor of Old Testament at Biblical Seminary and loves to teach the Bible. This passion was developed during twenty years of ministry with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, as a student at Stanford University (BA, MS,) and then on staff in Los Angeles and Philadelphia. Studies at Fuller Theological Seminary (MDiv) and the University of Oxford (MPhil, DPhil) further deepened his interest in the Old Testament.

1 Kings begins with a portrait of the king we're all longing for and ends in disaster. Power un-checked and un-submitted to the Lord breeds injustice and corruption.

Ask Dr. E is back for its 7th episode and we have some great questions to answer today, but want to quickly be sure to share a resource before we dive in.

We've had a number of Logos Mobile Ed professors join us as guests on Bonus Episodes in our current series, The Big Book–Cover to Cover.

I was an early adopter of Logos software - the library is exhaustive and the software is so fast. They've begun to offer a Mobile Ed program. You'll continue to hear from more of those professors, but Logos a great

The book of 2 Samuel takes place at about the mid-way point in the timeline between Abraham and Jesus Christ.

It's here that we come to know David, the man after God's own heart, whose reign is mired by his great failures - and redeemed by God's great graciousness to him.

In examining David's kingship it's important to note: what motivates the king to seek the Lord's guidance?

Join us as we explore David's inquiries of the Lord in this important text:
