1 Samuel 12:13-15: Citizenship in the Kingdom of God (Demanding a King)

Welcome to the 11th sermon in our series on the books of 1 & 2 Samuel. (11 of 45)

In the books of 1&2 Samuel, God grants his people a king, but it doesn’t go the way they think it will go. Power is something every person craves, but does it ever deliver what we hope it will deliver? In God’s story, power is a crucible that enables, lifts up, reveals and exposes. It is God’s to grant and ours to either steward or worship…one leads to life, the other to destruction.

Join us through the books of 1&2 Samuel as we look at the stories of prophets, kings and peasants being shaped and formed by God’s crucible of power.
