In this message, we launch a new series in our study of the book of I Samuel, entitled, “The Call for a King.” Israel begins to turn from the leadership of the Judges and prophets to the monarchy – all while God tries to remind them that He is their ultimate King and leader.

In this message, as we conclude our six-week sermon series in the book of I Samuel, “The Ark of the Covenant,” we see one final completion of the cycle repeated throughout the time period of the Judges in Israel, rebellion, retribution, repentance, and revival. Where do we find ourselves today?

In this message, as we continue our six-week sermon series in the book of I Samuel, “The Ark of the Covenant,” we see the foolishness of the worship of any god or anything other than the one true God. And we also see a sort of “second Exodus,” reminding Israel of God’s power and glory.

In this message, we launch a new series in our study of the book of I Samuel, entitled, “The Ark of the Covenant.” As a nation, Israel has taken God for granted – and now He begins to move to discipline them, but His discipline, then and now, is intended to lead them to repentance and revival.

In this message, we conclude our nine-week sermon series in the book of I Samuel, “Samuel’s Call.” Samuel models a truism about God’s Word that still resonates today – God only gives a message in order for it to be shared. What kind of stewards are we of God’s truth?

In this message, as we continue our nine-week sermon series in the book of I Samuel, “Samuel’s Call,” we finally come to a familiar text – Samuel’s childhood summons to ministry by God.

In this message, as we continue our nine-week sermon series in the book of I Samuel, “Samuel’s Call,” we encounter the first prophet in several generations in Israel – and he arrives to issue God’s message of judgment on Israel’s wicked priests.
