What a Royal Mess: A Study of 1 and 2 Kings
Author: Susan Tyner – PCA

How do I get out of my life’s messes? How can I keep from getting in them? Can God use this mess for any good? Am I stuck in this forever?

If you have ever sinned and then struggled with the mess that results, King Ahab’s story is for you. If you have made horrible choices and wonder if forgiveness is possible, then King Manasseh’s is for you. Or, if you are in a mess because of circumstances beyond your control, then King Hezekiah’s story is a must-read. What a Royal Mess! uses 1 and 2 Kings to explore the “black hole” of the Old Testament, to discover a “new” batch of Bible stories, and to learn in a fresh way of God’s goodness to us.
