The Story of Elijah (Full Episode)
About this episode
This episode explores the story of the prophet Elijah during a dark time in Israel's history, highlighting themes of faith, doubt, and God's provision.
**Warning for this episode: self-harm** I hope you enjoy the FULL episode of the story of the prophet Elijah. Israel was in a dark time. The king, Ahab, had married a foreign princess named Jezebel, and together they led the nation away from the Lord. The people began worshiping Baal—a false god. Enter Elijah. God provides food for him during a famine, heraises a dead child to life, takes part in a showdown with the worshipers of Baal on Mount Carmel, and confronts king Ahab. Even with all these triumphs, he also has a moment of weakness and doubt—something we can all relate to. But hisstory reminds us that even when an entire nation turns away, God is able to work through one faithful person to call people back to the truth. We are reading 1 Kings 17, 18, 19 and 21, and 2 Kings 1 and2.
