What happens when people keep asking God for direction while refusing to obey what He has already said? https://patrickryanlewis.com/2026/08/17/ezekiel-20-when-god-confronts-a-history-of-rebellion/ Ezekiel 20 takes us through Israel’s painful history of rebellion—from Egypt, through the wilderness, and into the Promised Land. Again and again, God’s people turned toward idols and rejected His commands. Yet one phrase keeps appearing: God acted for the sake of His name. This chapter is a powerful reminder that God’s patience should never be mistaken for permission. His grace does not make sin insignificant—it should lead us to repentance. The question Ezekiel 20 leaves us with is deeply personal: Are we genuinely seeking God, or are we asking Him to approve a life we have not fully surrendered to Him? Read the new blog as we explore Ezekiel 20: When God Confronts a History of Rebellion and discover what this chapter teaches about obedience, idolatry, judgment, grace, and the faithfulness of God. #Ezekiel20 #BibleStudy #BookOfEzekiel #ChristianLiving #BiblicalTruth #Repentance #Obedience #GodsGrace #GodsFaithfulness #OldTestament #AGuyAndHisBible

Gideon defeated an overwhelming enemy, experienced an incredible victory, and became one of Israel’s most celebrated leaders. But his greatest danger may have come after the battle was over. https://patrickryanlewis.com/2026/08/16/when-success-becomes-a-snare-learning-from-the-final-years-of-gideon/ In Judges 8, Gideon tells the people, “The LORD will rule over you!” Yet what follows reveals a troubling spiritual decline. He accumulated wealth, began living much like the king he said he would never become, and created an ephod that eventually became an object of false worship. His story gives us a warning we still need today: Winning yesterday’s battle does not guarantee tomorrow’s faithfulness. Success can test our hearts just as much as suffering. Recognition can become a trap. Influence can become identity. Even something connected to our faith can become an idol when it takes the place that belongs to God alone. The question is not simply, “Am I succeeding?” We also need to ask: Am I becoming more faithful?
 Am I still teachable?
 Am I pointing people toward Jesus or toward myself?
 What kind of spiritual legacy am I leaving behind?

Writing the book turned out to be only the beginning. There is a moment every new author eventually faces. The manuscript is finished. The book is published. Your name is on the cover. And then comes a much harder question: **Would anyone read it?** In today's blog, I continue the story of my unexpected journey into becoming an author—and what happened when it was time to stop writing for myself and begin looking for readers. 📖 **I Wrote the Book, but Would Anyone Read It?** Sometimes finding readers begins with just one. 👉 Read the new post on my blog. https://www.steverhartwigauthor.com/blog
