This passage shares the account of a church that is looking at what the church down the road is doing. The pastor (Samuel) tries to lead this church (Israel) according to God’s will, but the congregation won’t heed his counsel.
As we look at this chapter of 1 Samuel today, there unfolds a scene that can be applied to discussing the goal of churches today. What is the vision of some churches?

The LORD has appeared of old to me, saying, Yea, I have loved you with an everlasting love: therefore with loving-kindness have I drawn you (Jeremiah 31:3).
AN EVERLASTING LOVE. Jeremiah 31:1-6. The book of Jeremiah is mostly, but not exclusively, a book about God’s judgment.
