David is on the run, but he’s not alone. In 1 Samuel 19–20, we witness one of the Bible’s most moving friendships. Jonathan, Saul’s son, risks his future and safety to protect David. Their covenant friendship shows us that loyalty isn’t passive—it’s active, courageous, and rooted in righteousness. This episode explores what it means to […]

This week we’ve traced the dramatic rise—and faltering obedience—of Saul, and the quiet anointing of David. From hidden baggage to battlefield bravery, the contrast between human appearance and God’s heart couldn’t be clearer. Through it all, one theme rings out: God doesn’t choose the way people do. He sees differently. He calls the unlikely. He […]

David’s encounter with Goliath is more than a story of bravery—it’s a testimony of faith. While others saw a threat, David saw an opportunity to trust God. Chapter 17 reminds us that no giant is bigger than our God. Chapter 18 begins to reveal David’s rise and the complexities of favor, jealousy, and leadership dynamics. […]

These chapters bring us face-to-face with a sobering truth: partial obedience is still disobedience. Saul’s failure to fully follow God’s command costs him the kingdom. In contrast, God chooses David—a humble shepherd—to be Israel’s next king. Why? Because God looks at the heart. This episode reminds us that God values surrender over sacrifice and humility […]

In today’s passage, we see the tension between fear-driven action and faith-filled obedience. Saul acts impulsively when the pressure mounts, stepping outside his role and disobeying God’s command. In contrast, Jonathan shows us what bold trust looks like—even when the odds are stacked against him. This episode highlights the importance of waiting well and obeying […]

In 1 Samuel 11–12, we see a remarkable contrast between triumph and conviction. God empowers Saul to lead Israel to a stunning victory, affirming his new role as king. But the celebration is quickly grounded by Samuel’s honest confrontation of Israel’s past mistakes—their insistence on a human king over divine leadership. Yet even then, God […]

In today’s episode, we walk through 1 Samuel 9–10, where we meet Saul and witness the beginning of his anointing as Israel’s first king. Though Saul looks the part—tall, handsome, impressive—his heart is hesitant. When called, he hides. These chapters remind us that God doesn’t look at the outward qualifications we tend to value. He […]

In this episode, Heather walks us into the book of 1 Chronicles—a book that begins with names but tells a story of hope, identity, and God’s covenant-keeping character. Originally written to encourage a post-exile people, 1 Chronicles helps us remember who we are and whose we are. As Heather unpacks the book’s background and themes, […]
