Josiah: The Boy King: A Historical Novel on Josiah’s Reign and How God Used Him to Restore a Nation
At just eight years old, Josiah never expected to become king, but when his father, the wicked King Amon, is assassinated, the young boy is thrust onto the throne of Judah. In a time when the nation has turned away from God, Josiah faces enormous challenges—idols fill the land, corruption runs deep, and most people have forgotten the ways of the Lord.
Despite his youth, Josiah’s heart is drawn toward God. With the guidance of faithful mentors like Hilkiah the priest, Josiah embarks on a courageous journey to reform Judah. He destroys false idols, restores the temple, and leads his people back to worshiping the one true God. But when a long-lost scroll of God’s law is discovered, Josiah realizes just how far the nation has strayed. Determined to make things right, he calls for repentance and revival, leading one of the greatest spiritual awakenings in Judah’s history.
