SOLOMON'S SLOW DRIFT BEGINS! (I KINGS 9); Ep. 9

The Arete Way - Pursuing Excellence

As Solomon continues to build an incredible kingdom, he finished the construction of the great Temple of God along as well as his personal palace, we begin to see small compromises within Solomon's heart. God gives Solomon a warning out of mercy to watch his heart and walk in His ways, but we start to see pride and self-sufficiency begin to materialize in Solomon. This chapter marks the beginning of Solomon's slow decline as a great leader and great king.
