Everything You Need To Know About 1 Samuel
Have you ever wondered what something in the Bible means?
We get it—the Bible is a difficult book with big words and strange, old stories. But we can help.
We believe reading the Bible is one of the best ways you can listen to Jesus and do what He says.
What You’ll Learn in 1 Samuel
The book of 1 Samuel is all about leadership and character. Human leaders rise and fall, but God is consistently good.
As you read 1 Samuel, you’ll find the stories of Samuel the prophet; Israel’s first king, Saul; and Israel’s most remembered king, David. You’ll read about David’s battle with Goliath, how he developed good character, and how Saul’s bad character caused trouble for himself and the whole nation of Israel—important parts of the history of God’s people.
Human leaders rise and fall, but God is consistently good.
