God Begins Something NewIsrael wants a king. They want to be a kingdom. For decades God's people had been stuck in cycles of sin and repentance--oppressed by rulers from outside and by sins from within. In 1 & 2 Samuel, God begins to do something new. Starting with Samuel's miraculous birth, continuing with Saul's insecure leadership, and culminating with David's consolidated kingdom, the stories of 1 & 2 Samuel illuminate how God uses even our missteps so He can lead us into His best ways.LifeChangeLifeChange Bible studies will help you grow in Christlikeness through a life-changing encounter with God's Word.
