How does Israel handle the return of the Ark of the Covenant? How does Samuel rally them to serve God and destroy their idols? What can we do to devote ourselves to God alone? Why does Israel call for a king after being shown they don't need one? Is Samuel a bad father? Can a righteous family raise an unrighteous child? Why does God warn Israel about having a king? Is there anything wrong with having a king? Why would God give us what we want even when it's not good for us? How can we learn from this lesson?
