Through the Bible with Pastor Paul

2 Samuel 1-2 - When Your Enemy Falls

Why does David grieve when the man who hunted him for years finally dies? In 2 Samuel 1–2, Pastor Paul shows how David’s response to Saul’s death reveals a heart shaped by God, not by revenge. Listeners will see how David mourns his enemy, honors Jonathan, and patiently waits for God’s timing as he’s anointed king over Judah. You’ll also learn how a civil conflict breaks out between the house of Saul and the house of David, and why David’s humility and dependence on the Lord set the stage for Israel’s eventual unity.

1 Corinthians 11 (Part 1): 1-16 - God's Order for Marriage

Why does God care about the order He built into marriage? Pastor Paul unpacks Paul’s teaching in 1 Corinthians 11 by showing how headship, honor, and mutual dependence reflect God’s design rather than cultural oppression. You’ll learn why head coverings mattered in Corinth, what “a symbol of authority” meant in that world, and how the real issue is the heart’s response to God’s order—not an outward tradition. This passage calls husbands and wives to embrace their God-given roles with humility, respect, and sincerity, following the example of Christ Himself, who modeled willing submission.

1 Samuel 19-20 - Bitterness in the Heart

Why does bitterness spread faster than we realize? In 1 Samuel 19–20, Pastor Paul shows how Saul’s wounded heart grows into open hostility and how that bitterness fractures relationships, clouds judgment, and poisons everything it touches. You’ll see Jonathan’s costly loyalty, David’s heartbreak, and the tragic unraveling of a king who refuses to surrender his hurt to God. This teaching invites listeners to confront the roots of resentment, discover the healing that comes through surrender and prayer, and learn how the grace of God restores what bitterness tries to destroy.

1 Corinthians 10 (Part 4): 23-33 - Principles for Godly Living

Why do our everyday choices reveal what we value most? Pastor Paul shows how these verses call believers to lay down selfish freedoms and live with a heart shaped by love, wisdom, and the glory of God. Paul’s guiding principles—edifying others, avoiding unnecessary offense, and seeking the good of many—give practical clarity for navigating gray areas with a Christlike mindset. You’ll learn how true freedom serves others, how small decisions can open or close the door for the gospel, and why a Spirit-led life goes deeper than principles alone.

1 Samuel 18 - Where Your Treasure Is

What if the real battle isn’t against people but against whatever owns your heart? In 1 Samuel 18, Pastor Paul shows how Saul, Jonathan, and David each reveal where their treasure truly lies—and how that shapes their reactions to victory, honor, and threat. You’ll see why Saul clings to power, why Jonathan gives freely, and why David walks in humility and trust even when wronged. This chapter invites listeners to examine their own loyalties, expose misplaced treasures, and rediscover the freedom that comes from anchoring the heart in the Lord.
