In this episode we explore one of the most tender and truthful moments in all of Scripture—Samuel’s farewell address to Israel in 1 Samuel 12.
Samuel reminds God’s people of three great truths:
1. He has been faithful—a servant of integrity from youth to old age.
2. God has been faithful, delivering His people time and again, even when they strayed.
3. Now they must be faithful—to fear the Lord and serve Him with all their hearts.
But what about those who have failed? Those who’ve sinned deeply? Through Samuel’s words, and through the stories of David and Peter, we discover the gospel heartbeat of the Old and New Testaments:
There is hope after failure — not because we are strong, but because God is gracious. Even when we’ve sinned, the Lord invites us to return, to confess, and to serve Him again.
David taught. Peter preached. Both failed. Both were forgiven. Both were restored.
Join me as I explores how grace restores the fallen, how faithfulness flows from forgiveness, and how the Lord still says to us today that if we come to Him, He will say to you what He said to Peter: Feed my sheep. Serve Me again with all your heart.”
