The Impatient King: The Rejection of Saul at Gilgal

When fear makes disobedience sound responsible, what do you do? Discover Saul's struggle at Gilgal and the hope Jesus offers.
About this Event

What do you do when doing the right thing looks as though it could cost you everything?

When the money is running out. When people are leaving. When the answer has not come. When everybody around you says, "You cannot afford to wait any longer."

This was the crisis facing Saul, Israel's first king.

His enemies were gathering. His soldiers were scattering. The prophet he was waiting for had not arrived. And under mounting pressure, Saul made a decision that would change the future of his kingship.

But Saul's story is not simply about an ancient king who lost his way. It raises questions that confront every one of us.

How do we respond when fear takes hold? When circumstances seem beyond our control? When doing what is right appears more costly than taking a shortcut?

Join us for Part Two of our King Saul series, as we explore 1 Samuel 13:1–15 and discover why pressure can reveal what is happening in our hearts.

This message moves beyond Saul's failure to the hope found in Jesus Christ — the King who remained faithful under pressure and who offers forgiveness, transformation and a new beginning.

Whether you have attended church for years, have not been for a long time, or have never stepped inside a church, you are warmly welcome.

He stood tall. But could he stand firm?
