David 17 Small Group Guide
Allen Nolan
In this sermon from 1 Samuel 21–22, we examine the tragic story of Doeg the Edomite, Saul’s paranoia, and the slaughter of the priests at Nob. Through this passage, we learn how unrepented sin hardens the heart, how fear can twist our perception of truth, and why obedience to God must come before obedience to man. This message challenges us to confront sin early, guard our hearts from bitterness and suspicion, and live with humility, truth, and a right heart before God.
