Chapter 11: Questions

From Shepherd to King 

As always, feel free to answer questions in the comments (especially the "Digging Deeper" ones) and share any thoughts you might have about the "Personal Action." Or, let us know if YOU have a question!


CHECKING YOUR COMPREHENSION
1. What can we learn about prayer from Hannah? 

2. How exactly did Samuel show his faith in God? 

3. Why was it so wrong for the Israelites to ask for a king? 


DIGGING DEEPER
1. How did Saul respond when confronted with his sin? How do YOU respond when confronted with your own sins and shortcomings? 

2. Where do you see God's grace at work in this chapter?


PERSONAL ACTION
Charles Caleb Colton coined the phrase, "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" in the early 1800s. In other words, "People tend to do what the people around them are doing ... for better or for worse!" 

So, who do YOU hang out with? 
Who are you imitating? 
Who has the most influence over you? 

What are the unhealthy and ungodly habits you have picked up from others? And what are you going to do about them??


This is a safe place to be able to share questions and fears and doubts. You can post using your name or not, whichever you prefer. And if you choose to respond to someone's comment, please be gentle with your words.
