Salvation not by your own hand (1 Samuel 25)

In this Bible study, Rev. David Buchs leads us through Psalm 107 and key moments from 1 Samuel, tracing the rise and fall of King Saul and the quiet faith of David as he waits on the Lord’s promises. Through rash oaths, patient restraint, and the wisdom of Abigail, we see how God restrains His people from “working salvation with their own hands” and instead draws them back through His Word.Sunday Bible Study – Grace Lutheran Church, Little Rock, Arkansas(February 22, 2026)Taught by Rev.
