The Danger of Ignoring God

1 Samuel 2:12-36 | Eric Hovis | 5/25/25

This week, we continue our series, Quest for a King, in the book of 1 Samuel. In chapter 2, Eli’s sons dishonor their priestly role, so God declares judgment on Eli’s family and promises to raise up a faithful priest, ultimately pointing to Jesus. Pastor Eric highlights four key takeaways from the text:

1. We ignore God by ignoring his instruction.

2. Blessing comes with obedience to God.

3. We ignore God by ignoring counsel to kill sin in our life.

4. Don’t ignore Jesus.
