Sunday Sermon - The Lord of Life and Deliverance

What stands out to you from hearing these verses?  Is God offering an invitation or a challenge to you through those words?  Take time to pray about it. 2. What do you learn of Saul's world ways from this passage? 3. Where do you see these ways in your own life or in the world around you?  i.e.: the ways of fear, mistrust, and taking life into our own hands in a way that neglects God. 4. What is story of shame in this chapter (and book—read 1 Samuel 20 and 2 Samuel 9, noting that this chapter falls directly in the middle of the two!)? 5. How do the ways of the Lord overcome Saul's ways of shame in this book? 6. How will you trust in God's work in Jesus this week, rather than the fears and mistrust that might swirl about?
