Scripture: 1 Samuel 5:1-7:2

Kyle walks through 1 Samuel 5–7, where God topples the Philistines’ idol and directs the ark home to show He won’t be treated as a lucky charm or one option among many. We see that God isn’t looking to be appeased with our “golden offerings” of effort or success, but to be trusted and obeyed as first above everything else. This teaching presses us to ask how we’re responding to God’s specific nudges in our lives right now—and whether we’re actually doing what He’s asked.
