Episode Details

In Ezra 10, we see one of the most difficult moments in Israel’s restoration story: public repentance for a communal sin, and a painful commitment to return to God’s ways. After confronting the issue of intermarriage with pagan nations, Ezra leads the people in confession—but the real test follows: Will they act on what they’ve confessed?

This episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures explores how true repentance demands more than words. It involves hard conversations, accountability, and sometimes heartbreaking decisions. We also look at the balance between individual and communal responsibility, the power of spiritual leadership in crisis, and how transparency strengthens trust.

Whether you're navigating sin in your personal life or leading others through moral reckoning, Ezra 10 offers timeless wisdom about what it takes to walk in obedience—especially when it's uncomfortable.
