About this listen

In a world full of compromise, temporary fixes, and flawed leaders, who can we really trust?

This week, Stu looks at King Hezekiah in 2 Kings 18 — a rare good king in a long line of failures — and learn what real trust in God looks like. Hezekiah removed idols, reformed worship, and stood firm against powerful enemies. But even he cracked under pressure.

His story reminds us that partial deliverers will always fall short, but Jesus never will.

Key Themes:

  • What makes a leader trustworthy?
  • Hezekiah’s reforms were bold, faithful, and rooted in trust in God.
  • Idolatry can sneak in through even good things — like the bronze serpent.
  • Hezekiah stood strong… until fear got the better of him. Sound familiar?
  • We don’t need to compromise, because Jesus is the King who delivers completely.

Like Hezekiah, we’re called to set our minds to trust God, but unlike Hezekiah, we have a Savior who never fails — even when we do.
