From Theocracy to Monarchy
1 Samuel traces Israel’s transition from judges to kings, featuring the lives of Samuel, Saul, and David. It explores themes of leadership, obedience, and God’s sovereignty. The rise and fall of King Saul, contrasted with the humble heart of David, show how God chooses leaders based on the heart, not appearance. This book offers rich material for sermons on calling, character, and trust in God.
