After Israel splits into two separate countries (North=Israel, South=Judah), a series of kings rule each of them.
In the north, things aren't going so hot. Remember: God's people (the Israelites) are supposed to show the world what God is like. The northern country of Israel, especially the leaders, were wicked and evil people. Thus, the people of God has poor examples of what looking like God actually looked like!
Elijah was a prophet that stood out from the crowd and spoke against the evil the northern kingdom had plunged themselves into. This did not win him popularity contests... quite the opposite. Here is his story of standing out and speaking for the LORD God.
