The biblical accounts contain a wealth of biographical details with all the ups and downs of human existence. It ranges from painful tragedies to impressive victories, from terrifying crashes to magnificent feats of heroism.

Martin looks with you at two biblical figures, – two kings, – the could hardly be more different. To one, God appears, speaks to him, promises him great things, and grants him remarkable success … while the other is a The ultimate sycophant, who sheds innocent blood and whom the Bible says led the people into sin. The matter seems clear: one is righteous, the other unrighteous; one is a man of God, the other a scoundrel. But in both cases, the biblical account continues differently …

For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the whole earth to be faithful to those who, whose hearts are wholly devoted to him.
2 Chronicles 16:9
