## Resource

This week, Pastor Jim walks us through 1 Samuel 28, where Saul, desperate for guidance, turns to a medium instead of seeking the Lord. After a lifetime of rejecting God's direction, Saul experiences the tragic consequences of relying on his own way rather than trusting God's. This sobering passage reminds us that God alone is our source of wisdom, hope, and guidance, and that turning away from Him only leads to emptiness. Text: 1 Samuel 28, 31 Recorded: June 21, 2026
