The Disguise of Control (1 Kings 14)
Chase Replogle
Pastor
We’ve seen how Israel’s kings continue to grasp for control. And we’ve seen how the more they attempt to maintain control the more God thwarts their attempts. But these kings live like we so often do. When their lives fall apart, they go on pretending everything is perfectly under control.
