This engaging volume in the People's Bible Devotions series covers the four biblical books of Kings and Chronicles, as well as Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther, which record roughly 575 years of Israel's history following the rule of King David.

In these brief devotions, you'll witness internal political struggles for power, bloody assassinations, foreign oppression, brutal captivity, and dramatic returns from exile in Babylon. You'll see that through everything, the Lord remained a faithful Father to his flawed followers because he vowed to send them his Son as their Savior.

Some of these biblical characters will inspire you, some will disappoint you, and some will anger you. Like you and me, each of them was flawed. Like you and me, each of them had a faithful God.
