This week Miria shares from 1 Samuel 3.

The Book of 1 Samuel outlines the fall of King Saul & David's rise to the throne as a humble servant of God.

It tells the dramatic story of Israel's desire for an earthly king to rule over them.

Despite God's warning that such a king would fall short, God relents and King Saul rules with disastrous consequences.

A faithful king is on the rise, however it's only by coming to God in humility and obedience that their - and our - greatest hopes can be fulfilled.

Miria and her husband Mark are key leaders in our community, both are dedicated to see others come to know Jesus, His love for the world and His  grace and power in their lives. They enjoy a good board game over coffee, singing worship in the car, a musical or being part of a full house at the Adelaide Oval.
