The Rise of the King

The Rise of the King
1 Samuel is a book of barrenness and battles, kings and schemes, shepherds and giants. It recounts the history of Israel as it moved from no king, to the king it demanded, to the king God knew his people needed. Yet the most significant idea of this book lies not in it’s events and characters, but in the person they all point to. 1 Samuel presents us with a wonderful picture of Jesus. Seeing him in and through The Rise of the King enables us to see him with fresh color and texture, and to see afresh what it means for us to follow him today as our Ruler and Rescuer.
