“If the Lord Be God, Follow Him”

PART 2
Brother Mike Madsen traces the downfall of King Saul through 1 Samuel 20-26, contrasting his pride and jealousy with Jonathan’s loyalty and Abigail’ s Christlike intercessions, and the hard, personal work of forgiving and laying down a vengeful heart.

What do you do when God’s plan looks nothing like the one you had for yourself? Professor Lori Newbold explores the timeless stories of Ruth, Naomi, and Hannah, uncovering what loyalty, grief, and a relational faith in Christ can teach us about trusting God through life’s most unexpected detours.
PART 2
Professor Lori Newbold draws on her background in theology and mental health to illuminate Hannah’s extraordinary faith, her meekness under provocation, her wordless prayers of grief, and the surprising truth that being a mother, like being a disciple, is not a destination we wait for but an identity we live now.

“The Lord Raised Up a Deliverer”
PART 1
What happens to a covenant people when they repeatedly abandon God, fall into oppression, cry out for deliverance, and then do it all over again?

PART 2
Dr. Lori Denning turns to two of Israel’s most complicated judges, Gideon and Samson, and shows how gifted, Spirit-empowered men and women can unravel under the weight of pride and broken covenants, and why their stories are less a museum exhibit than a mirror.

What do a former harlot, a river that parted on faith, and a pile of rocks have in common–and what does God want you to remember about all three?
