Title: The Two Voices on Your Shoulder

Passage: 1 Samuel 25

Speaker: Ricky Alcantar

Sermon Summary: Which voice are you listening to—foolishness, pride, or godly wisdom? In 1 Samuel 25, Pastor Ricky unpacks the dramatic encounter between David, Nabal, and Abigail, showing how Nabal’s pride and David’s vengeful reaction reveal how easily foolishness multiplies, while Abigail’s wise intervention models counsel that considers others, exercises self-control, and keeps the Lord’s ways central. This message ultimately points us to Christ as our perfect mediator and the true voice of wisdom who leads us toward life rather than destruction.
