Godly Leadership
David has been making decisions—without God’s guidance. Some good, some almost crazy. But David is a charismatic leader and his 600 men, their wives and children are willing to follow him. But that’s about to come back and bite him. This passage gives us the opportunity to compare David’s leadership with and without God.

1 Samuel 28
Practicing the Presence
Life is busy. Life is consuming. And sometimes we forget. We forget that our help and our salvation is in the Lord God. We don’t consult him. We do our own thing.
How do we keep from forgetting the most valuable Person in our life?

The Great Escape
1 Samuel 19. Saul’s paranoia increases as David’s star rises. So begins “The Great Escape”—spears, henchmen, climbing out windows in the night. Anyone who trusts Jesus as Savior gets a target on their back, for the enemy is like a roaring lion. Pastor Randy discusses the battle and our weapons.
And the Lord was With Him
In 1 Samuel 18 we find that Saul has become aware that the Lord is now with David and Saul becomes jealous and plots secretly against David…but indeed the Lord was with him!

An Unfathomable, Personal God
1 Samuel 15 Part 1
God seems pretty simple in fourth grade Sunday School, but if we don’t move beyond a fourth grade understanding of our God, we might find Him insufficient for our adult life. 1 Samuel 15 will expand our understanding of God.
In Name Only
What does it mean to be a Christian? What does that look like? From the way some people act they are Christians in name only. As we look at the life of King Saul, we see a man who wanted to look religious, but his heart and his actions betray him.
