A Bible study on Samson’s life that frames him as an allegory for Israel: gifted and privileged but undone by entitlement, lust, arrogance, and revenge. The sermon draws lessons about resisting temptation, learning from mistakes, parenting/discipline, and trusting God for justice—culminating in Samson’s final act of calling on God and completing God’s purpose.
“If you look in the history in 1st Samuel 7:2 you'll read that the Ark of the Covenant was in Abinadab's house for 20 years.”
Using 2 Samuel 6 (the story of David, the Ark and Uzzah), Pastor Lonnell Williams warns against mistaking applause and momentum for obedience. He calls the church to “carry” its culture — live the values (teaching, prayer, worship, community, generosity, service, honor, excellence) — rather than merely celebrate them. He emphasizes four practices for carrying the presence of God: obedience, understanding, accountability and grace, and issues a practical call to serve, submit to correction, and join the church’s mission.
