1 Samuel 13 - 14

1 SamuelSteve Gregg
In this segment, Steve Gregg discusses the continuation of the story of Saul in 1 Samuel 13-14. The situation worsens as Saul models the behavior of kings in other nations and his army melts away. Saul waits for Samuel to offer sacrifices to God, but when Samuel doesn't arrive after seven days, Saul takes matters into his own hands and offers the sacrifices himself, leading to rebuke from Samuel. Meanwhile, Jonathan takes bold action and leads a successful attack against the Philistines.
