Ezekiel: Visions of God's Restoration

What does Ezekiel have to do with everyday family discipleship?


In this week’s episode of The Wholehearted Households Podcast, host Alex Blount introduces us to the book of Ezekiel, reflecting on how we long for God’s kingdom to break in to our current contexts.


Our Bible spotlight focuses on Ezekiel’s visions of God’s divine presence among the Israelites, calling God’s people to repent, follow God’s law, and work together for the good of their community.


Then, our discipleship nugget equips you and your family to use your creativity to explore Ezekiel 37 and its message of the hope for resurrection.


Finally, our spiritual practice invites you to take a few moments to reflect on the brokenness of our world and how God is making all things new.


Wherever you listen, may you and your family be blessed by this episode as you seek to follow Jesus with your whole heart.
