1 Samuel

Take a moment and think about your favorite brands, like Nike, Gucci, Apple, etc. If you saw someone wearing that brand, what would you typically associate with them? Being branded can mean either having a brand name or it can also mean being marked. If anyone in the Bible knows what it is like to be branded, it is David in the Old Testament.

Branded

In part two of this six-part saga through 1 and 2 Samuel, we'll make our way through chapters 8-15 as we see the rise and fall of Israel’s first human king: Saul. Discover the dangers of following the crowd, the importance of obedience and faithfulness with the things God has given you, how power and the pressure it comes with can lead to compromise when we’re not walking in step with the Spirit, and what true spiritual leadership in the lives of others looks like.


1 Samuel 8-15: The Rise and Fall of a King

In this devotional we’ll study the life of David, one of the greatest men of the Old Testament. The red headed boy who shepherd sheep, the giant-slayer warrior, the worshipper poet and the one who God himself chose to be King over Israel.

After His Heart

This 5-day plan from Pastor Mike Signorelli explores breaking free from toxic family patterns through biblical wisdom on spiritual roots behind difficult relationships. Gain insights on rising above dysfunction for your God-given purpose. Though you didn't choose your family, God did, and He can use you to end generational trauma.

Help! I Have a Toxic Family!

By the end of this study, we pray that you will know God’s voice better, that you will know when and how he speaks, and feel compelled to obey. As we study Scripture, we will discover that God’s plan cannot be thwarted regardless of who is in power. The point of the original monarchy found in 1 and 2 Samuel, illustrates that from the beginning.

Influence of God's Glory

The books of 1 & 2 Samuel tell the stories of three broken heroes used by God to establish a kingdom for His people: Samuel, the revered last judge; Saul, the impressive first king of Israel; and David, the flawed poet-warrior. Beyond the page-turning adventures, battles, and political gamesmanship lies the story of a greater King—the true and forever reigning son of David, Jesus.

Picture this: a nation chosen by God; a prophet from an unlikely background to help show God’s ways to His people; a king whose fear and unfaithfulness bring disaster; and a man after God’s own heart who changed the nation of Israel forever.
