Episode Description

Passage: 1 Kings 12:1-24

Date: 1 March 2026

Speaker: Christoph Ebbinghaus

Summary: In 1 Kings 12, we witness the division of Israel and the rise of Rehoboam, Solomon’s son, who fails to heed wise counsel, leading to discontent among the people. This story reminds us that while human leaders may disappoint, God’s sovereignty prevails through chaos. Ultimately, it points us to Jesus, our true King, who invites us to find rest and service in His gentle leadership, contrasting sharply with the burdens of earthly rulers.
