Listen "Encountering the Word of God"
Episode Synopsis
Pastor Jim shares the story of King Josiah from 2 Kings 22 and 23, drawing out how a true encounter with the Word of God leads to repentance and reform, even when the outcome doesn’t change. Jim shows how Josiah responds to God’s Word not with despair over Judah’s coming exile, but with deep humility and conviction, modeling what it looks like to follow God because He is worthy. The Word becomes the center of the story, not the king, and Jim challenges listeners to consider whether their lives reflect a daily posture of repentance shaped by God’s truth. Pointing to Jesus as the better Josiah who reveals the fullness of God in flesh, Jim reminds us that the reward of obedience is not comfort or control, but communion with God Himself.
