1 Samuel

← Back to Books of the Bible

1 Samuel is where Israel decides it wants a king, gets one, and immediately starts having regrets, while a shepherd named David quietly becomes the most interesting person in the room. Between the witch of Endor and a giant getting taken out with a slingshot, there’s a lot going on. We covered all 31 chapters.

You’ll also see 6 episodes marked Dig Deeper below. The show’s format is an unstudied first read, reactions and all, so those episodes are where the hosts go back into a book or chapters they already covered to chase down their own questions and pick up what they missed the first time through. They’re not listener Q&A, just the hosts grading their own homework.
