Listen "Elisha and the Life of a child (2 Kings 4.8-37) - Paul Worledge"
Episode Synopsis
Do we live in a world that cares for children? It's a big question ask. In some ways the protection and rights of children are better than ever before. Yet, the incidents of mental health in children suggests that maybe the focus of our culture is not as child-friendly as we would like to think.
Back in the time of Elisha, in the Middle East, child sacrifice was common (see 2 Kings 3:26-27). Yet, in this passage we see that the God of Israel is deeply concerned to give for the welfare of children.
