Nov 13, 2026

She was the most powerful woman in Judah. Her husband loved her above all his other wives, her son became king, and her grandson inherited the throne. But Queen Mother Maakah had a secret that would eventually cost her everything.

When King Asa began cleansing Judah of idol worship, he discovered that his own grandmother had made a detestable image for Asherah. Faced with an impossible family decision, Asa did the unthinkable: he stripped Maakah of her position as Queen Mother and ordered her idol destroyed in the Kidron Valley.

Discover the dramatic story of Maakah, her rise to power, her humiliating downfall, and the difficult decision that changed the royal household of Judah forever.

But King Asa's story carries another warning: the man who once showed extraordinary courage in obeying God would later struggle to trust Him.
