The Heist of the Ark

Heather Crespin
About this episode

Friends, I'm excited about this episode. It's a gripping one. You never win when you try to go against God! The Philistines learned this the hard way when they stole the Ark of the Covenant. This is also when Samuel becomes Israel's judge.

We are reading 1 Samuel 4 through 7.
