2 Chronicles 20-24: The Queen Who Almost Ended It All

Season 14 Episode 8

What do you get when you mix royal marriages, palace drama, and one very wicked queen? In this episode, we follow the unraveling of a godly legacy as we wrap up chapter 20 and head into 2 Chronicles 21–24. 

One sinful alliance sets off a chain of destruction, but even in the chaos God’s promise to David stands firm. And through the quiet courage of two faithful people, the line of Christ is preserved.

Themes of this podcast: 

Sinful alliances can derail Godly legacies. Jehoshaphat was a good king, but his alliance with Ahab opened the door for idolatry, violence, and spiritual decay in Judah. One unwise decision—marrying into a wicked family—allowed sin to unravel generations of godly influence.

God preserves His promises, even through chaos. Despite betrayal, murder, and idolatry, God keeps His promises. His plans cannot be stopped even by the darkest evil.

Ordinary faithfulness can change the course of history. Jehosheba and Jehoiada weren’t kings or warriors—they were a stepdaughter and a priest. But their courage, faith, and obedience became the turning point in Judah’s story. God uses faithful people in hidden places to do extraordinary things.
