The event is recorded in the 18th chapter of the book of Kings. Elijah had been living in Sidon with a widow for some time, hiding from Ahab. God finally commands him to leave Sidon and confront Ahab. At this point the people of Israel under Ahab’s leadership are living in sin and completely oblivious to their depravity. Elijah is basically sent to restore them; but to do so God commands him to call fire down from heaven. We are going to be looking at the significance of this event in today’s presentation.

My name is Tayib Salami and I started Tayibs.com for the sole purpose of exploring difficult questions about the Christian faith that most of us shy away from. In 2017, I entered a very dark time in my life and it’s only by the grace of the Living God that I’m still alive today. It led me to really go deeper in my faith and consider a myriad of questions that I never thought about asking myself or others before. Welcome and enjoy the ride with me.
