We are going to learn today the consequences of shaul's Foolish heir, and why did he make such an error? Because he was not committed to God's plan, God's purposes, God's will, but rather he looked at things from a human perspective.

Guest preacher Pastor Troy Wong leads us through 1 Samuel 19.
Send us a textIn this episode, we're turning to 1 Samuel chapter 14—a story that contrasts two men, a father and a son. One is Saul, the king who sits beneath a fruit tree while the battle rages. The other is Jonathan, his son, who steps forward in faith, believing that “nothing can hinder the Lord from saving, whether by many or by few.” This chapter shows us the difference between half-hearted religion and wholehearted faith, between trusting ourselves and trusting God. It's a story about courage, foolishness, obedience, and grace. So, join me as we ask the question, who are we like, the father or the son….Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

1 Samuel 8 -Lawson Harlow We experienced Technical Difficulties at the end of the sermon.
Offenses In 1 Samuel 25, Scripture reveals how David, worn down by grief and pressure, is pulled into a dangerous response to Nabal's insult. Though David's men had protected Nabal's shepherds, Nabal repays their kindness with contempt, and David moves impulsively toward bloodshed. God intervenes through Abigail, whose discernment and courage stop David from acting out of offense and burdening his future with needless violence. The chapter becomes a study in how God rescues His people from themselves, inviting us into humility, self-control, and a willingness to let His voice redirect our course.
Human Sin leads to conflict, Gospel Grace leads to peace. How to CAUSE conflict like Nabal: be greedy and selfish How to CAUSE conflict like David: be prideful and angry How to RESOLVE conflict like Abigail: be wise and humble For more information, please visit us at mercyhouse365.org
On this second Sunday of Advent, we look at Jesus as the promised priest. What does that look like? Is Jesus even qualified to be a priest?

Send us a textIf you had met him, you would be impressed. For one thing, he was tall, head and shoulders above the average person. Then the fact was that he was good-looking. But he had other attributes as well. He was a hard worker. There are some indications that he was humble as well. And then there is no doubt that the hand of God was upon him. This is a fella that had great potential. He had everything going for him physically and apparently spiritually as well. But he did not live up to his potential. It's tragic. With all these possibilities, he just didn't live up to what he could have been. I'm talking, of course, about someone we have already met. I'm talking about King Saul in the Old Testament. He had the potential to be a leader, a great leader. But unfortunately, he never realized his full potential. So, what happened? What went wrong in his life? Well, we're told that in this chapter.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

Verse by verse teaching of 1 Samuel 12 titled “Samuel's Address at Saul's Coronation” by Pastor Jeffrey Anderson, guest speaker of Calvary Chapel Clayton, NC on November 26, 2025.https://www.calvaryclayton.com
“But the Lord said to Samuel, ‘Don’t judge by his appearance or height, for I have rejected him. The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.’” (1 Samuel 16:7 NLT) God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Think of the time when a giant Philistine was taunting the armies of Israel. Everyone was paralyzed with fear. So, whom did God select? He chose a shepherd boy who had been sent by his father to take food to his brothers on the front lines. This young shepherd went out to face the heavily armored giant with a few stones and a sling—and more importantly, with faith in God. David was the person God used to turn the tide of battle and give Israel victory. At another time in Israel’s history, when the people were immobilized by fear because of their enemies, God found a man threshing wheat. His name was Gideon, and he was convinced that God had called up the wrong guy. But God selected him because he didn’t trust in his own ability. Gideon had to trust in God. He, too, won an unlikely victory for his people. In 1 Samuel 16:7, we read these words: “But the Lord said to Samuel, ‘Don’t judge by his appearance or height, for I have rejected him. The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart’” (NLT). It’s a simple yet extremely effective strategy. If God were to choose the people we would expect—the strong, the powerful, the talented, the ones who look like they just walked out of central casting for a spiritual hero role—to accomplish His work, our focus would be on them. Instead, God favors the small, the humble, the unlikely, so that we can more clearly see His hand at work. After God refused to remove a physical affliction from the apostle Paul, Paul wrote, “Each time he said, ‘My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.’ So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong” (2 Corinthians 12:9–10 NLT). If you have faith in God, if you believe that He can use you, and if you’re willing to take a step of faith here and there, then God can do incredible things through you. He is not looking for ability but availability. He can give you ability in time. But God is looking for someone to say, “I would like to make a difference where I am. Lord, I am available.” And in this season of thanksgiving, let’s praise God not only for using ordinary people like us to accomplish extraordinary things but also for making us aware of the potential we possess through Him.

Send us a textIn this episode we explore one of the most tender and truthful moments in all of Scripture—Samuel's farewell address to Israel in 1 Samuel 12.Samuel reminds God's people of three great truths:1. He has been faithful—a servant of integrity from youth to old age.2. God has been faithful, delivering His people time and again, even when they strayed.3. Now they must be faithful—to fear the Lord and serve Him with all their hearts.But what about those who have failed? Those who've sinned deeply? Through Samuel's words, and through the stories of David and Peter, we discover the gospel heartbeat of the Old and New Testaments:There is hope after failure — not because we are strong, but because God is gracious. Even when we've sinned, the Lord invites us to return, to confess, and to serve Him again.David taught. Peter preached. Both failed. Both were forgiven. Both were restored.Join me as I explores how grace restores the fallen, how faithfulness flows from forgiveness, and how the Lord still says to us today that if we come to Him, He will say to you what He said to Peter: Feed my sheep. Serve Me again with all your heart.”Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

How do you know that your heart is set on fire by God?
In 1 Samuel 15, Saul disobeys a direct command from God, and the consequences are devastating. God takes our disobedience seriously, and so should we. This message will help us examine why we disobey, whether it's pride, misunderstanding, or a lack of trust, and call us to a deeper relationship with God where His wisdom shapes our will. If our hearts remain cold toward the consequences of sin, it's time to ask God to show us the truth and renew our faith in the gospel.
It is very important. For every believer to walk in the will of God. And how do we understand that in a practical way, do the things that God has called you to do? You see, the enemy will tempt us to worry about other things that God hasn't told us to do that. It's not part of his will for our life, and we get distracted.

Send us a textIn this episode, we explore the moment Saul is confirmed as Israel's first king — a turning point in the nation's history. We trace how fear turned to faith, and how obedience led to joy. Through Saul's story, we discover what it means for God to establish His kingdom not by human power, but through divine purpose. Key Themes: God confirms His calling through faithful action The difference between weeping in fear and rejoicing in faith The importance of planning with the Lord, not apart from Him Understanding 1 Samuel in its larger biblical and theological context Scripture Focus: 1 Samuel 11:1–15 Takeaway:When you include the Lord in your plans, your fears turn into faith and your weeping into joy.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

This episode unpacks how Saul weaponizes Michal's marriage to trap David, and how God turns every dark scheme into another step toward David's calling.

1 Samuel 7 -Lawson Harlow
Saul Deceives David This sermon walks slowly through 1 Samuel 24, tracing David's encounter with Saul in the cave at En Gedi and inviting listeners to pay close attention to how God forms His people through tension, danger, and restraint. The message highlights God's ongoing protection over David even when threats are near, the danger of acting on human logic instead of God's word, and the discipline of resisting voices that sound wise but do not align with Scripture. It examines David's sensitivity to conviction, his refusal to harm the Lord's anointed, and his willingness to honor God even when surrounded by people urging him toward compromise. The passage becomes a study in discernment, humility, the difference between genuine repentance and manipulation, and the wisdom of extending forgiveness without stepping back into harm. It ultimately points to the covenant faithfulness of God, showing how David's mercy flows from an already-established promise, and how Christ fulfills this pattern by mediating a better covenant that extends grace, cleansing, and restored relationship to all who come to Him.
