Sermons on 1 Samuel
An Old Prophet’s Last Sermon
We conclude our study of the life of Samuel today in chapter 12. We thank Pastor Hefti for his message.
What to Do?
What does God want me to do next? Do you struggle with this question? Believe it or not, I don’t think this is a helpful question to ask yourself. I believe this question is flawed from the start and is setting yourself up to fail. Why? Let’s take a look at King Saul and find out. We continue our study of the book of 1st Samuel today in chapter 11.
A Better Kingdom
Saul immediately failed expectations when he was anointed king of Israel. Politicians and politics regularly fail our expectations; this is why our primary identity is not in any political party, and our primary hope is not in a candidate or elected official. Our identity is in Christ. Our hope is in Christ. We continue our study today of the book of first Samuel in chapter 9 and 10 today.
Unlikely Justice
Be careful what you ask for; you just might get it, especially justice. God’s justice is to punish Christ. Our study of the book of 1st Samuel continues today in chapter 8.
Two Battles
How can you reach a point of saying “Thus far the Lord has helped me” after suffering, tragedy, or trauma? We continue our study of the book of 1st Samuel today in chapter 7.
Slay Our Idols, Show Your Glory
When do we worship idols? Politics, jobs, children; anything easily becomes an idol until God mercifully slays our idol and draws us back to his forgiveness and love. We continue our study of the book of 1st Samuel, today in chapters five and six.
Worship God, Not a Box
Can we practice idolatry in the name of worshiping God? Absolutely; it is one of the most natural things to do. The Israelites did it at the end of Eli‘s life, and Christians do it today. How do we recognize it? How do we avoid it? We continue our study of the book of first Samuel, today in chapter 4.
Formed in the Word…Spread the Word
Why are teens and young adults essential to the message of Christ for our sins? Why was Samuel the exception? We continue our study of the book of First Samuel, today in chapter 3 with God calling Samuel to serve him.
What We Need Is a Good Priest
We continue our study of the book of 1st Samuel,  today continuing and 2:12. Today we see the wickedness of Eli’s sons and the promise of Samuel’s future service.
Turn On Its Head
Today’s message is continuing through our look at the book of 1st Samuel, today in 2:1-11, Hannah’s song of praise. Is your message valuable? Can your message break through? Hannah has some perspective in her song of praise.
