Jan 14, 2026    Brad Hainje

Join us as we dive into the opening chapter of 1st Kings. This study covers the dramatic transition of power in Israel's monarchy. As King David’s health declines, a power struggle emerges between Adonijah and Solomon.


📍 What We Cover:

The Danger of Presumption: We will look at Adonijah’s attempt to crown himself king and the spiritual dangers of "getting ahead of God."


The Courage of Nathan and Bathsheba: How God uses faithful individuals to speak truth to power and how to properly bring awareness of an issue.


The Establishment of the Kingdom: We will see the transition from the "Man of War" (David) to the "Man of Peace" (Solomon) as Solomon is anointed King of Israel.
