In this message, Pastor Harley walks through 1 Samuel 10, showing how God orchestrates the beginning of Saul’s kingship. From lost donkeys to divine appointment, Saul is positioned and anointed by Samuel with a full flask of oil—a tangible picture of God’s equipping and preparation. Pastor Harley emphasizes that God doesn’t just place leaders in positions; He empowers them for every task, transfor...

In this teaching through 1 Samuel 9, we see the beginning of Israel’s transition from a theocracy—where God Himself was their King—to a monarchy shaped by their desire to be like the world. Despite their rejection of His leadership, God, in His mercy, allows their request and begins raising up Saul as Israel’s first king. Saul appears to be everything people would want—handsome, tall, influential—...

In this sermon, Pastor Harley contrasts the revival of 1 Samuel 7 with the disappointment of 1 Samuel 8. After Israel had returned to the Lord, put away their idols, and seen God give them victory, a new problem rises up over time: they begin moving away from God’s original design. Samuel is now older, his sons are serving as judges, and unlike their father, they turn aside after dishonest gain, t...

In this sermon, Pastor Harley highlights 1 Samuel 7 as a turning-point chapter— repentance and revival after twenty years of spiritual drift. The Ark is back in Israel, but not where it “should” be (it sits in Abinadab’s house, not the tabernacle). Yet the encouragement is clear: God is willing to meet His people right where they are , even when things aren’t perfectly in order. Pastor Harley uses...

In this message, Pastor Harley picks up right where the previous week left off—Israel has lost the Ark, Eli is dead, and the moment feels like “Ichabod” written over everything. But the sermon’s surprising turn is this: even when Israel is faithless, God shows He doesn’t need Israel to defend Him. The Philistines parade the Ark like a trophy and set it beside Dagon, as if to say, “Our god beat you...

In 1 Samuel 4, Pastor Harley shows a sobering picture of what happens when God’s people try to use the things of God while ignoring the God of those things. Samuel’s success is previewed right away: “he let none of His words fall to the ground,” treating God’s Word like something priceless—not crumbs, but the main course. That kind of full obedience becomes the foundation for every role we live ou...

In 1 Samuel 3 we meet a twelve-year-old boy serving in a dark spiritual time, and Pastor Harley shows how God can use one surrendered life to revive a nation. Samuel is simply “ministering to the Lord” in small, unseen tasks, surrounded by corrupt priests and a failing high priest—yet God sees his servant heart. From Jesus washing the disciples’ feet in John 13 to a simple act of cleaning a gym af...

1st Samuel 2 | 1 Samuel 2 | Pastor Harley Doneburg | January 15, 2023 Hannah’s song in 1 Samuel 2 rises out of years of pain, waiting, and surrender. Pastor Harley walks us through this God-fashioned transformation: a barren, tormented woman who wanted a son to remove her shame becomes a worshiper who rejoices in the Lord and gladly gives that son back to Him. Her prayer reveals a heart no longer...

In a dark season when “everyone did what was right in his own eyes,” God begins a fresh work through a very imperfect family. Elkanah loves the Lord and faithfully worships in Shiloh, yet he’s conformed to the culture by taking two wives, creating deep pain and rivalry in his home. Hannah is barren, mocked by her rival, misunderstood by her husband, and feeling like she’s on an island—yet instead...

Pastor Harley pictures the Christian life as a long-distance race —not a sprint—where endurance is built by fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith . The “cloud of witnesses” in Hebrews 11 are not spectators in heaven, but living testimonies in Scripture —men and women whose stories remind us that if God carried them through darkness, delay, suffering, and uncertainty, He ca...

In Unto Us a Child Is Born | Isaiah 9:6–7 (December 25, 2022) , Pastor Jeff uses Isaiah’s prophecy like a Christmas gift you “open” layer by layer—showing that Christmas isn’t sentiment; it’s a promise-keeping God stepping into a cursed world with an indescribable gift: Jesus Christ . That creates a posture he keeps returning to: look back with appreciation at fulfilled promises (the first coming)...

In A Second Chance and a Reluctant Heart | Jonah 2–4 (December 18, 2022) , Pastor Harley walks the book to its uncomfortable center: Jonah isn’t mainly a story about a fish—it’s a story about a prophet with a hard, reluctant heart , and a God who is relentlessly committed to both mercy and heart-transformation . Jonah 2: Rock-bottom prayers and the “seed” that survives Harley highlights how Jonah’...

In Running from God, Pursued by Grace | Jonah 1 (December 11, 2022) , Pastor Harley frames Jonah as a real, historical prophet —and he anchors that by starting in Matthew 12:38–41 , where Jesus calls Jonah a prophet, affirms the “three days and three nights” in the fish, and points to Nineveh’s repentance as a rebuke to hard-hearted unbelief. The setup matters: Jonah isn’t a children’s tale; it’s...
