1st Samuel 5-10

Listen in as we read about Samuel's sons who because of their corruption, the Israelites demand a king to judge over them. God tells Samuel to warn them about this, but they demand a king and God allows Samuel to give them one. Eli and Samuel seem to have the same parenting issues in raising children up who do not honor the lord. It's a typical joke that it's the pastors kids who get into the most trouble in the church, although that isn't always the case. I remember growing up that the pastors youngest son would repeatedly get kicked out of Sunday school, and he turned into a fine young man later on. I pray you children obey and fear God.
