1 Samuel 8

February 26, 2017 • Pastor Ray Bollas

Israel looked to the world and wanted a king- abandoning the better way God had for them- the consequences of their choice were fatal. Do we believe, as they did, that we can run our lives better than God? Calvary Chapel Anne Arundel | Pastor Ray Bollas

1 Samuel 9

March 5, 2017 • Pastor Ray Bollas

Saul had everything the world would think a king should be, but God looks not with the world's eyes- He looks at the heart. We need His perspective as we examine ourselves, others, and the world around us. Calvary Chapel Anne Arundel | Pastor Ray Bollas

1 Samuel 10

March 12, 2017 • Pastor Ray Bollas
