What happens when pride and compromise take the place of wisdom and obedience? The story of Israel’s division is more than just history—it’s a warning for today. King Rehoboam ignores the advice of his elders, choosing arrogance over humility. Meanwhile, Jeroboam establishes false worship, leading Israel into generations of idolatry. In this episode of The Wisdom Journey, Stephen Davey reveals the dangers of rejecting God’s guidance and following human ambition. Can we recognize the same temptations in our own lives? What does it mean to trust God in a world filled with compromise? Discover how the choices of these two kings still speak to us today and learn how to avoid the pitfalls of pride and disobedience.
