Bible Study: 1 & 2 Samuel
February 15, 2023
You are invited to just us for a Bible Study on "The Story of King David: The First and Second Books of Samuel" on Wednesday mornings from 10:30 to 11:30AM, following the Morning Prayer service at 10:00. In this study, we will read through the longest single narrative in the Bible, taking us from the time of the Judges through the establishment of the monarchy in Israel, to the reign of King David, and his death. While not ignoring the theological framework, the emphasis will be on the text as story. To take part fully, participants should read each section before the session.
