1 Samuel

No man is an island; we need friends. Created in God's image, we were created for community. Where do we begin? In this study, you'll learn friendship principles from David, Jonathan, and Mike Tyson. When you're done, you'll know what a good friend is, and hopefully, you'll be a better friend. 

Male Friendship 101: David, Jon, & Iron Mike

The Holy Spirit uses God’s Word to grow believers in their faith and increase their passion for Jesus. Break down the book of 1 Samuel into the “Big Picture” of the passage, then “Digging Deeper” into that section, and then move into “Living Out” the lessons that are taught in the passage in this 5-day reading plan.

See the Big Picture. Dig In. Live It Out: A 5-Day Reading Plan in 1 Samuel

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.

The Book of Samuel

Through these daily readings, discover who the real King David of the Bible was. Both noble and wretched, neither a saint nor a monster, at times victorious and other times a failure, David was through it all a man after God's own heart.

David The Great

The Bible contains many stories about people who lived thousands of years ago. Their situation was very different from ours. And yet, their lives contain valuable lessons for us — which is why they were recorded in the Bible! This reading plan studies the lives of Jonathan and David and their friendship. Will you read along?

Jonathan and David, a Very Special Friendship

In this seven-day devotional for men, we walk through the book of 2nd Samuel, looking at the life of King David, the "man after God's own heart." We examine his victories and failures and learn what it means to be a man like him. Written by J.R. Hudberg.

Triumph & Turmoil

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.

Seasons of Change

Jesus' disciples lived the faith adventure. They followed Him, carried courage, and saw incredible things unfold. Jesus is still calling His followers today to do the same. This Bible reading plan is an invitation to ask God what steps of faith He is calling you to take. Be encouraged by Jonathan and his armour-bearer from the passage in 1 Samuel 14. 

Are you up for the adventure? 

Faith Adventure

In this leadership plan, Martijn van Tilborgh equips readers with the biblical strategies, stories, perspectives, and advice to navigate the cultural shift that is occurring in the church. When we better understand the kingdom culture which we all should be striving for with intentionality, we can more effectively pursue it in our lives and in the church.
