The Unfiltered 8 Week Leaders Guide Through 1 Samuel: Leaders guide to accompany The Unfiltered Story of 1 Samuel

Stop Planning. Start Leading. Your 8-Week 1 Samuel Roadmap.

If you are leading a small group through the 40-day devotional, The Unfiltered Story of 1 Samuel, this Leaders Guide is your complete conversation starter. It takes the individual entries and packages them into 8 structured, ready-to-use lessons to ensure a meaningful, non-superficial discussion every week.

With this guide, you will be able to:

• Structure 8 Meetings: Follow a clear weekly schedule, from Lesson 1 ("The Call of a Prophet," Days 1–5) through Lesson 8 ("The Final Judgments," Days 36–40).

• Challenge Your Group: Use questions that focus on internal character and application, such as "How do you risk treating God or a specific spiritual discipline... as a tool to guarantee a good outcome?" (Lesson 1) .

• Highlight Core Truths: Clearly articulate the definitive lessons of 1 Samuel, including the vital truth that "to obey is better than sacrifice" (Lesson 3).

• Drive Commitment: Use the suggested "Commitment" step to encourage active application of one conviction in the week ahead.

This is more than a discussion outline; it's a guide for helping people experience a transformation by applying the powerful truths of 1 Samuel.
