#147 - 1 Samuel - On the Harder Way

Scott and Mttdie walk through the book of 1 Samuel (with a brief look at 2 Samuel), highlighting key stories from Hannah and Samuel to Saul and David, and the Ark of the Covenant. They explore how God’s sovereignty and timing shape leaders and nations. The episode connects these biblical accounts to the podcast’s theme of "faith over fear," discusses responses to persecution and compromise, and offers practical application about trusting God's promises, choosing noncompliance when required by conscience, and embracing the harder, God-honoring way.
