Wisdom & Achievement Pt 2

February 4, 2024 • Pastor Seth Amerine

This week we continue our examination of First Kings chapters 4-9. We are continuing to consider the warning from last Sunday that accomplishment threatens wisdom. This week we're looking specifically at the prayer that King Solomon offers at the dedication of the temple in First Kings chapter 8. Read First Kings chapter 8 and consider the main subjects of his prayer and why those were important things to pray about in light of such a great accomplishment.

Wisdom and the Cost of Foolishness

This week we conclude our current study out of 1 Kings with a survey of the kings that followed King Solomon in 1 Kings 11-16. Take some time to read the text. Consider the things that are repeated about each king. What does this tell you about how a person's obedience or disobedience affects others?

Wisdom & Disobedience

This week we look at the dramatic downfall of King Solomon in 1 Kings 11:1-13. Take some time to read the text along with Deuteronomy 7:3-4, 17:17, and 1 Kings 8:59-61. Identify Solomon's sins. How do you think he got here? What warnings should we heed from this?

Wisdom & Achievement Pt 1

January 28, 2024 • Pastor Seth Amerine

This week we begin a 2-part survey of 1 Kings 4-9:9. We are looking at Solomon's breathtaking accomplishments and talking about the danger we face in our accomplishment of thinking it all comes from us and is for us. Read through the text, notice things Solomon says and does that help him remember where his accomplishment comes from and what it's really for. Consider God's statement to Solomon in 1 Kings 6:11-13. Why does he tell Solomon this when He does? What does this tell you about God's priorities in your accomplishments?
