1 Samuel Study Guide

Welcome to 1 Samuel. HERE I AM!
The lessons of 1 Samuel are profitable for students of all ages. Our children can understand Hannah's heartbreak and joy, the boy Samuel's attentiveness to the LORD's call, the inward qualities God directed Samuel toward in the anointing of David, and the story of Goliath. Remember Aaron and his golden calf (Exodus 32)? Our teens can profit from understanding Saul's similar behavior in 1 Samuel 15 and can be encouraged by understanding David's audacity in fighting Goliath. We can all learn from the priorities displayed among many in this book, the compromises made by those in authority, and that it is not just what you say but what you do that matters. In 1 Samuel we learn the origin of Ebenezer, we meet the extraordinary Abigail and, of course, we see David, who goes from madman to angel in the eyes of Achish. 1 Samuel teaches obedience, truth, and doing the right thing.
