A diary is a personal record of your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. It is a very popular tool for keeping track of important events in your life. Diaries are also a primary source for historians, as they can provide information on events that took place during the author’s time.

The books 1 and 2 Samuel were originally written as one book. When we read 1 Samuel we see the first part of the history of the kings of the Israelites. Samuel was a prophet. That means that God spoke to Samuel and he shared God’s word with the people - he was almost like a middle-man. This means that Samuel’s role is similar to how God spoke through Moses and then Joshua.
In this second half of the book of Samuel, we read about the reign of king David. What starts out as a success story of a humble king for the Israelites, soon plummets down after a massive moral failure. In the end, David reflects back on his life with a poem that links back to the poetry of Hannah we read at the beginning of this book (1 Samuel).
In this book we read the disturbing account of how the Israelites take on the customs and beliefs of the Canaanites, even after God has been so faithful to bring them into the promised land - they turned their backs on His ways.
In this book of Ruth, we will journal through the pages of a beautiful love story that also speaks about how God is deeply invested in our life circumstances and He can turn any situation around for good.
In this book, we read the next part of the story of the Israelites we have been following all along since Exodus. Joshua is the successor of Moses, and he gets to lead the people into the promised land (finally!).
