Join us this week as we unpack 1 Samuel 22-23 and discuss what it looks like to sit in seasons of waiting. ALSO: Reach out if you are up to the challenge of taking Vince on in a game of tetherball! Questions for application: Are you currently waiting for God to answer a certain prayer in your own life? Why do we struggle to ask God questions and wa…

1 Samuel 22-23 45:33

2d ago45:33

45:33

In 1 Samuel 22-23, we see how the Lord protects, guides, and uses the leaders He has put in place. Despite David's circumstances, he still turns to worship, trusting God's unending faithfulness. (Psalms for reference: Psalm 54; Psalm 57: Psalm 142)Di Vince Black

This week, we reflect on God's faithfulness and mans' sinfulness. Although sin always leads to destruction, we also know God is always faithful.

1 Samuel 21 36:00

9d ago36:00

36:00

In 1 Samuel 21, we see a beautiful picture of the gospel and God's mercy toward sinners. David, the "hero" of the story, fears man rather than God, and this lack of trust leads him toward sin and its consequences. In His kindness, God rescues David, reminding us of God's grace toward us through Christ, the true hero of Scripture.…

46:40

This week, we are joined by two very special guests as Eric takes us through some reflections on 1 Samuel 18-20. Are we currently in an "in-between" season? How have we seen the Lord bring us through previous seasons of waiting? Can painful "in-betweens" really be part of God's plan?Di The Town Church

1 Samuel 18-20 51:12

16d ago51:12

51:12

1 Samuel 18-20 marks the turning point in David's relationship with Saul, resulting in events that seem like a major detour between David's anointing and eventual reign as king. However, we know that this "in-between" season is still a piece of God's overall plan, and David's example teaches us how to live in the midst of waiting.…

The AfterWord - 1 Samuel 17 57:27

21d ago57:27

57:27

In 1 Samuel 17, we see David's anger over Goliath's opposition to the Living God, and he defeats Goliath for the glory and honor of God. How do we respond to the things in our own culture that directly oppose God? How does dwelling on the details of our lives cause us to overlook the greater picture of God's glory?…

1 Samuel 17 58:15

23d ago58:15

58:15

1 Samuel 17 tells the story of one of the most well-known showdowns in history: David and Goliath. At its heart, this passage is not about us; rather, it is about the glory and honor of God. It reveals to us that God will never allow opposition to stand against Him, and it challenges us to consider our own response to the things that directly oppos…

1 Samuel 16 45:07

1 Samuel 16 introduces us to David, the youngest of the sons of Jesse and a simple shepherd. Although he was overlooked by man, God saw David's heart and chose him as the king of His people. How does God use the ordinary, overlooked things in our own lives for His purposes? How can seeing more of God in these things shift our affection back towards…

The AfterWord - 1 Samuel 15 56:01

1M ago56:01

This week, we unpack two big words that were highlighted in the sermon: rejection and regret. How should we wrestle with the idea of rejection and the reality of our sin as Christians? What does "regret" really mean in this context? Who has the best joke? Let us know!Di The Town Church

1 Samuel 15 48:54

1M ago48:54

48:54

1 Samuel 15 is a heavy passage that ends with God's rejection of Saul as king. It reveals just how deeply God hates sin, and it challenges us to consider our own view of sin and how that impacts our view of God Himself.Di The Town Church

What are things we personally seek for security and peace of mind? Where do we see Saul's shortcomings as a leader in this passage? This week, we answer these questions and more as we dive a bit deeper into 1 Samuel 13 and 14 (or, in Eric's words, 1 Samuel 8, chapters 13 and 14).Di The Town Church

In 1 Samuel 13-14, Saul's shortcomings as king come to life, reminding us that earthly leaders will always end up falling short. Despite these things, this passage also reminds us that God's presence will always be with His people. What things are we seeking for security and peace of mind?

Today we unpack some of the main points from yesterday's sermon and examine patterns we've seen throughout 1 Samuel. Why is it significant that Samuel continues to remind the people that they sinned against God by demanding a king? How can our hearts shift toward being grieved by our sin and not just the consequences of that sin? Why must we remain…

1 Samuel 11-12 reminds us that we do have an enemy who is trying to steal our affections and allegiance away from God. However, we also have a Savior who restores us and brings us back to the Lord. What is our response to God's faithfulness to deliver us? How can we truly be faithful to Him?Di Vince Black

Today, we wrestle through our own tensions surrounding God's plan to instate Saul as Israel's king. While we see many flaws in Saul's character, we also know that he is one of the many imperfect people the Lord has used to carry out His perfect plans. Additionally, we hit on ways we have seen God reshape our own hearts both in the past and the pres…

1 Samuel 9 and 10 introduce us to Saul, God's first chosen king for Israel. Although the events of this passage seem random, we know that they are all pieces of God's plan to appoint a king. How do we see God directing us toward His plans in our own lives? How is He changing our hearts to prepare us for what He has before us?…

1 Samuel 8 45:50

We live in a world where the truth of God has been abandoned, and the absence of God feels as real as it did in the opening verses of 1 Samuel 3.
