Episode Details

Every empire that has ever risen has also fallen — and Nineveh would be no exception. Dr. John walks through Nahum's vivid poetic description of Nineveh's destruction, showing how the proud lion of the ancient world was brought to ruin by the God it had long defied. A sobering study in the justice of God, and a deeply comforting one for all who have placed their hope in him.

God's Patience Exhausted: What happens when a nation exhausts the patience of God? In this series, Dr. John works through the often-overlooked book of Nahum — the sobering sequel to Jonah — tracing the fall of the Assyrian empire and what it reveals about the character of God. A compelling study in divine justice, and a timely one for anyone who has ever presumed on the kindness of God.
