In today’s conversation, we’ll see the nation of Israel—the nation over whom God has ruled as a faithful King for centuries—reject God and demand an earthly king, all out of a desire to be like everyone else. We’ll watch the sovereignty of God play out once again, as God orchestrates events, connects people, and gives the nation what they want. We’ll marvel at the potential which awaited King Saul—as God transformed him into the anointed leader of his people—and we’ll ponder the truth that it’s ultimately God’s Spirit which qualifies the unqualified. So, pull up a chair at our table, and let’s dive into the conversation.

In today’s conversation, we’ll be making our way out of the Judges Era of the Bible and into the Kingdom Era with the birth story of a great man of God, Samuel, and his amazing mother, Hannah. We’ll see how the choices we make when we face adversity make or break our character, and we’ll see how a determination toward righteousness is always worth it. We’ll discover a new title for God, depicting the complete sovereignty of our all-knowing, all-seeing God, and we’ll discuss the mystery of his unspoken prompts which move us to action. We’ll marvel at the faithfulness of God to abundantly bless our sacrificial obedience, to meet us where we are to make himself known to us, and to always be working toward his plan of righteous redemption. So, pull up a chair at our table, and let’s dive into the conversation.
