1–2 Samuel: A 12-Week Study (Knowing the Bible) is a study guide that part of the knowing the bible series which focus on the books of the bible. In this 12-week exploration of the books of 1 and 2 Samuel, Pastor Ryan Kelly offers insights into God's character through the tales of the prophet Samuel and Israel's first two kings, Saul and David. When a monarchy is established in Israel, we see God's ongoing concern for his people as he chooses rulers and vows to keep his word by establishing an everlasting kingdom. Due to the 12-week study plan or the fact that it can be used as a devotional book, it is also suitable for small groups or other church activities.
