⚖️ A priestly lineage. A moral failure. A sobering lesson for those called to lead. ⚖️

Hophni and Phinehas, the sons of Eli, held positions of great responsibility as priests in Israel. Yet, their abuse of power, corruption, and disdain for God's commands brought dishonor to their calling and devastation to their family. Eli's Sons: A Warning to Leaders delves into this tragic story, offering a powerful cautionary tale for anyone in a position of influence. Through the failures of Eli's sons—and Eli's own shortcomings as a father and leader—this book examines the critical importance of integrity, accountability, and faithfulness in leadership.

In Eli's Sons: A Warning to Leaders, you will discover:

👉 The character and actions of Hophni and Phinehas, and how their corruption and irreverence toward God led to judgment.

👉 The role of Eli as both a priest and a father, and how his failure to discipline his sons contributed to their downfall.

👉 The consequences of spiritual negligence, both in personal lives and in the communities leaders are called to serve.

👉 How God's judgment against Eli's house serves as a reminder that leadership is a sacred trust that requires accountability and obedience.

👉 Practical lessons for modern leaders about the dangers of compromise, the importance of moral integrity, and the need to prioritize God's commands above all else.


Leadership is a privilege and a responsibility—may we lead with honor, faithfulness, and a heart fully devoted to God.
