8th Religion

For several lessons, we have studied the actions of the kings of Israel and Judah, and how they were unfaithful to God. The prevalent theme of these lessons was that all God wanted was for his people to repent and trust in Him alone. This week we will study Hezekiah, the king who finally acknowledged the wrongs that had been committed and repented. We will especially focus on the prayer he lifted up to God and how we can apply that to our own lives.
