New Days Pt 5 - Renew the Kingship
Before we get into our actual passage today, I want to give us just kind of a quick recap. It's been a little while since we've been in 1 Samuel, and we are ending one of the series that we've been going through. We broke this book up into sections of chapters and themes that go together, and we're ending this "New Days" series today.
Who Am I? Pt 2 - Your Mind Serves the Kingdom of God
We're continuing our short series on biblical identity, and I believe this is an incredibly important topic for us to engage right now. We live in a cultural moment where there is immense pressure for people to create their own unique and fulfilling identity. And if we're being completely honest and look soberly at our culture, the overarching momentum seems to be saying that this endeavor isn't going well—that people are actually quite bad at this, and it makes it really hard for humans to flourish.
