Listen "1 Samuel 28 - The Gospel According to Samuel"

Episode Synopsis


This Sunday, we’ll conclude our study in 1 Samuel for the year. We finish on a low note: God is no longer leading Saul, so Saul consults a medium with the hope of summoning his old prophet, Samuel, from the dead. But instead of helpful advice on the eve of battle, Saul is told he will die the next day. Saul’s long life and reign are coming to an end.

Although Saul is a cautionary tale for believers, he is also an object lesson bearing witness to God’s patience and faithfulness. If at any time, Saul had simply repented, he would have known forgiveness and grace. It’s never too late…until it finally is. Join us this Sunday as we conclude our study in 1 Samuel and the church year. Next Sunday is the beginning of Advent and the start of a new year in the church calendar.
