Discover the Kings of Divided Israel

If you love looking at history and seeing God's perfect plan in everything, then this is the right book for you. The kings of divided Israel reigned from approximately 950 BC to 586 BC.

Unlike Saul, David, and Solomon, the great kings of the united kingdom of Israel, their stories are not particularly well known except by Bible scholars and preachers. This book was written to demystify them, to get under their skin and understand what we can of what motivated them, the pressure they were under, and the effect of their reigns on themselves, their nation, and the people they governed.

It will also give you the chance to think about some of the issues brought to light by the lives of these kings. In each chapter there is a section which brings these issues to the reader to challenge them about themselves and their attitude to the God who made them and inspired the biblical authors to write about these kings.
