With the current landscape of society today, it’s sad that even the most heinous of crimes don’t shock most people anymore. This weekend in 1 Samuel 22, King Saul performs his darkest act yet, the brutal murders of 85 priests. How are we to respond when there’s so much evil in the world? This weekend’s message will help answer that question and direct us to the only true hope, a sovereign and Holy Savior.

Throughout 1 Samuel, David’s exploits, courage and dedication to the Lord have become renowned in all of Israel. Yet now, the one who’s named “a man after God’s own heart” has become timid and afraid. Whether everyone admits it or not, we all face times like this in life. What does God’s word say to us about returning to the only true source of strength? This week’s message will guide us to God’s truth.

When Jonathan realized his father’s intentions were to kill David, he was shaken. Saul was not the father Jonathan believed him to be. Brokenhearted, Jonathan reminded David of their covenant between each other and the Lord. Sadly, some people are not always as they seem, and it can be highly disappointing. In this week’s message, Pastor Chad helps focus our attention on the Savior, the One who can heal and work all things for our good and for His glory.

C.S. Lewis once stated, “Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: ‘What! You too? I thought I was the only one.” In 1 Samuel 20, Jonathan and David solidify their friendship through understanding of each other and a like faith based on God’s truth. There’s nothing better than having those you can trust, and they can trust in you. This weekend’s message will address this special bond between to godly friends and what God expects of us as followers of Jesus.

It probably never crossed David’s mind when he was anointed by Samuel to be king of Israel that he would find himself on the run. Instead of being accepted by King Saul, he would have to flee to protect himself. Life this side heaven often takes us down paths that seem we’re headed in the wrong direction, but in the sovereignty of God’s plan it places us right in the center of His will. Pastor Chad continues the series in 1 Samuel this week from chapter 19.
