Join us for the 3rd week in our series on the Life and Times of Samuel.

Join us for the 2nd week in our series on the Life and Times of Samuel. Frequent and intentional comparisons are made in these early chapters of 1 Samuel between the young Samuel, given into the care of the high priest Eli, and Eli’s two grown sons, who are working in the priesthood under Eli. God continues to be sovereign even as some turn their backs on him and others follow faithfully. Unconstrained by any human, the Lord uses decisions wise and foolish, and exults whom he wishes and destroys whom he wishes. The challenge to followers of God is to follow whole heartedly, being willing instruments of God’s work as His plans unfold.
