The Dumpster Tree God Chose (December 8, 2024)

Sunday night’s message:

We keep chasing what looks impressive—the success the world promises—forgetting it all carries an expiration date, like a freshly cut tree that soon dries out and becomes trash. Samuel falls into the same trap sizing up Jesse’s sons in 1 Samuel 16, until the Lord stops him cold.

• 1 Samuel 15:12
• 1 Samuel 16:6-7
• 1 Samuel 16:11-13
