The Books of 1 & 2 Kings with Dr. Cameron Howard

Описание: From Solomon's legendary wisdom to the fall of Jerusalem, 1 and 2 Kings tells the sweeping story of Israel's monarchy—and what it means when God's people lose everything they were promised. In this episode of the Bible in a Year podcast, hosts Kathryn Schifferdecker and Jennifer Wojciechowski sit down with Cameron Howard, Associate Professor of Old Testament at Luther Seminary, to explore one of the Old Testament's most dramatic books.

Cameron walks us through the divided kingdom of Israel and Judah, the towering prophetic figures of Elijah and Elisha, and the theological question that haunts the entire narrative: if God promised land and descendants, what does it mean that it's all been lost? Along the way, you'll encounter palace intrigue, miraculous provision, stories of injustice and accountability, and a God who never stops accompanying the people—even into exile.

Whether you're reading 1 and 2 Kings for the first time or returning to it with fresh eyes, this conversation will help you see why these ancient stories still matter for faith and life today.
