In the days of the prophet Hosea, Israel had sinned severely against God. Their spiritual adultery led to their judgment, as God punished them for walking away from Him to bring them to repentance. After digging into their five cycles of judgment last week, we now see the hope of restoration that awaited Israel in five cycles of salvation, as …
March 3, 2023 | The Prophet Hosea, Part 3
The book of Hosea is a sad story of Israel’s failures in faithfulness to God. The people were guilty of many sins that drew God’s wrath. Worst of all was their spiritual adultery against the Lord, as they worshiped false gods instead of Him. Today’s show, part 3 of our 4-part series on Hosea, explores the cycles of judgment the …
February 25, 2023 | The Prophet Hosea, Part 2
We are sinful people. When we sin, we deserve punishment. And when Israel sinned in the times of the prophet Hosea, the nation faced divine punishment. God used Hosea to identify major sins, including injustice, hypocrisy, and violence, that had entrapped the Israelites. They took pride in themselves instead of thanking God for His provision. Worst of all, Israel was …
February 18, 2023 | The Prophet Hosea, Part 1
God illustrates truths about Himself and His relationship with His people in unique and memorable ways. The book of Hosea is a great example of God’s penchant for doing these unusual types of things. God gave the prophet Hosea an incredibly difficult task: He was to marry an immoral woman who would be unfaithful to him. But through this difficult …
February 19, 2022 | The Year of Jubilee, Part 2
Last week we learned about the year of Jubilee, which God instructed the Israelites to remember in Leviticus 25. Though Jubilee is rarely mentioned in the rest of Scripture, its themes are such a key to Bible prophecy. They show up in the Old Testament, but they also play a major part in Jesus’ message to Israel. In the second …

April 17, 2021 | Kings of Israel: King Jehoiachin
To conclude our series on the kings of Israel, we want to introduce you to a king that often doesn’t get talked about but plays a major role in the story of Jesus. Without this king, the line of David would have ended, and God said in 2 Samuel 7 that the King of Israel must come from the line …
April 10, 2021 | Kings of Israel: King Manasseh
After studying three of Judah’s most faithful kings, we’re analyzing Manasseh, a wicked king who led God’s people into evil. Though he reigned longer than any other king in the split Kingdoms of Judah and Israel, he led a life of wickedness that shaped his method of rule over Judah. Despite having the righteous King Hezekiah as his father, Manasseh’s …
March 27, 2021 | Kings of Israel: Kings Hezekiah and Josiah/Passover
We’re studying two of Judah’s most famous and godly kings this week: Hezekiah and Josiah. Hezekiah had a special relationship with the Lord that benefited the Kingdom of Judah that it would not see again until his great-grandson, Josiah, ruled righteously as well. Chris draws striking parallels between these two men while analyzing how their kingships affected God’s Chosen People. …
