What the Bible says about Josiah's Leadership
(From Forerunner Commentary)

2 Kings 22:19-20 A normal leader at this point, his life secure, might well have walked away from trying to help any further, yet Josiah is far from typical. God's warning only motivates him to redouble his efforts. Mike Ford Josiah Related Topics: Josiah | Josiah's Leadership | Josiah's Motivation | Josiah's Reforms

2 Chronicles 34:32-33 By the sheer force of Josiah's personality and example, the people stay in line, but they do not truly live righteously like Josiah. Josiah clears everything connected with pagan practices from the land and provides the people with godly leadership. However, only twelve short years after his death—after attempts by two sons and a grandson to rule—Judah falls captive to Babylon. Even Josiah's family, both immediate and extended, fail to follow his sterling example. Mike Ford Josiah Related Topics: Josiah | Josiah's Leadership | Josiah's Reforms
