This week Michael shares from 1 Samuel 4-7.

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.
