WMAE 028: Judah Is Conquered and Carried Away

“Although Judah had turned to idols, rejected God’s law, and filled the holy city with bloodshed, God never abandoned His people. He still loved them and stayed faithful to His covenant with them.” “Judah Is Conquered and Carried Away,” written by David Schiano and published in the September/October 2026 issue of The Way Magazine, can greatly encourage us by showing how God still cared for Judah even after they had forsaken Him. The piece takes us through the history of what happened to the southern kingdom of Judah and highlights the work of certain obedient prophets who tried to help the struggling kingdom. Although this time period was one of the darkest in the Old Testament, the record can still remind us of God’s grace, mercy, and faithfulness to His people.
