1 Samuel 17:1-37 David arrives at the battlefield and sees what fear has done to God's people. Before he ever fights Goliath, faith starts forming in the field—and now it's time to speak up.

In this powerful message from Avenue Community Church, Pastor Tim explores the intersection of faith, mental health,and God's grace through the story of Saul and David in 1 Samuel 16. What happens when disobedience opens the door to distress? How does God's grace reach into our emotional, psychological, and spiritual struggles? With honesty, humor, and biblical depth, Pastor Tim challenges us to rethink the false divide between faith and mental wellness. Discover how God's “common grace” — the blessings He extends to all people — reveals His care for our whole person: body, mind, and soul. Whether you're wrestling with your own mental health, walking alongside someone in pain, or simply longing to see how the gospel speaks to real-life struggles, this sermon offers hope, insight, and a fresh vision of God's healing presence in everyday life. Key Themes: God's sovereignty and human responsibility The spiritual roots of emotional distress Mental health and discipleship in the church Common grace vs. special grace Learning the language of the Kingdom Listen and be reminded: God's grace meets us not just in our spirit—but in every part of who we are.

Verses 16 to 25 of 1 Samuel 12
For us in America, politics is an all too frequent hot topic, especially in recent months. The same is true in Israel, and yesterday I left you in a tragic political moment. The tribal elders had rejected Samuel’s sons and called Samuel to find them a human KING! Their words are historic and cataclysmic in significance: “We want a king over us. Then we will be like all the other nations…” (1 Samuel 8:19,20) (Click here to see full text, images and links) Pastor Doug Anderson “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, with our eyes fixed on Jesus…” (Heb. 12:1,2)Have a comment or question about today's chapter?

Second Baptist Church - Houston, TX | At the end of 1 Samuel 15, the prophet Samuel is depressed, disappointed, and distressed. Decades of his life, work, and ministry had been geared towards building the kingdom culture of Israel - and in no time at all, Saul's reign had ruined so much hard work. Without a plan forward, Samuel mopes. With too stringent a perspective, Samuel wrestles. But God gently corrects his course, showing His hand and hope through it all.

In this message, we look at the story of Saul—the man who looked like everything Israel wanted in a king. He was tall, strong, impressive, and came from a wealthy family. But beneath the surface, his heart was already being eaten away by hidden flaws—spiritual neglect, insecurity, pride, and disobedience. Through Saul's story in 1 Samuel 9, we learn a sobering truth: it's not the big failures that destroy us, but the small compromises we ignore. Like termites behind a wall, little sins—small lies, pride, laziness, selfishness—slowly hollow out our spiritual foundation until everything collapses. This lesson challenges us to “sweat the small stuff”—to pay attention to the subtle warnings, the quiet compromises, the habits and attitudes that weaken our walk with God. It's a call to humility, repentance, and spiritual awareness before it's too late. God doesn't want us standing in the ruins of what could have been. He wants to rebuild us from the inside out. When we face our hidden sins and let Him restore us, what once was rotting can become new again.

Even though Shaul was not a faithful King, we're going to see in this study, that he began in a most positive way. And the reason for that great success, initially is because he relied upon the Lord what God had provided to lead him in the direction of God's will. And there's a great message for us, and it's this, when we are believers, God will lead us, He will provide everything that we need in order to accomplish His will. In other words, as we've mentioned many times, God is always faithful.To donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org
In her bitter trial of barrenness and persecution, Hannah poured her heart out to the Lord in faith. When God blessed her with a son, whom she called Samuel, noting that God had heard her, she turned to God in fervent praise. Her prayer-song in 1 Samuel 2:1-10 is filled with wonderful reflections on God and His faithfulness, sovereignty, and provision.

In this powerful message, Pastor Tim takes us deep into the story of David and Goliath—not as a children's tale of bravery, but as a vivid portrait of the cosmic battle between good and evil, faith and fear. Through David's unlikely victory and Saul's growing jealousy, we're reminded that the true battleground of the kingdom isn't fought with swords or spears—it's waged in the human heart. Discover how Jesus, the true and greater David, has already secured victory, and how faith—not self-reliance—is our only weapon in life's fiercest fights. Pastor Tim challenges us to examine where our trust really lies, to confront our inner giants, and to step off the sidelines into God's mission.
