یەکەم ساموئێل 13:4-18

Eli was a judge and a high priest, yet because he "failed to plug the leak" in his home, he faced the judgment of God. In this 5-day devotional, learn lessons from Eli’s life that will convict you to plug the leaks in your life.

This week, we will explore the book of 1 Samuel, engaging the transition of Israel from the age of judges to the age of kings. We will spend two days with each of the main characters—Samuel, Saul, and David—seeing both things to emulate and things to avoid as men of God.

This reading plan will introduce you to the book of Samuel, including why and under what circumstances the book was written and how it applies to Christians today.

In part one of this epic six-part saga through 1 and 2 Samuel, we'll read through chapters 1-7 and explore the birth of Samuel, his rise to becoming the last judge and first prophet of Israel, the early battles between Israel and the Philistines, and why passing on your faith to the next generation is so important.
