Welcome

"So come lose your life for a carpenter's son
For a madman who died for a dream
And you'll have the faith His first followers had
And you'll feel the weight of the beam"--Michael Card

1 Samuel

Hannah, Samuel, Eli, Saul, David, Goliath, Jonathan, Ichabod, (Ichabod?) (Yes, Ichabod), Hophni, Phineas, Doeg the Edomite. These are characters you meet inside the action-packed book of 1 Samuel. Was Samuel the last judge or the first prophet? What is this Ark of the Covenant and does it have anything to do with Indiana Jones? Why do the people want a king? What king do they get? Why does this king want to kill David? Why won't David kill him back? How does all this point to Jesus?

Here are the videos for the conversation John and I had about the Old Testament book called 1 Samuel. The entire conversation is only about twenty minutes long and, I think, very informative about the content of this book. If you would like to read 1 Samuel and know what it is you are reading and what it means to us as Christians then these videos were made for you. Watch and be blessed.
