When You Inherit Dysfunction: Knowing God’s Voice, Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional

In this episode, Rachael explores the story of King Josiah, a biblical figure who inherited a broken nation steeped in idolatry and corruption. She emphasizes the importance of humility, action, and obedience in the face of inherited dysfunction. Josiah's reforms serve as a model for modern believers, encouraging them to confront the 'high places' or idols in their lives and to remain faithful even when the outcome seems bleak.
