In this episode of The One Accord Podcast, the team works verse-by-verse through 1 Samuel 20–24 and runs headlong into one of Scripture's thorniest tensions: David repeatedly deceives Saul, the priests at Nob, and the king of Gath — yet he's called a man after God's own heart. Is lying always a violation of the Ninth Commandment, or does context change the verdict? And when David asks God whether Saul will come to Keilah, God says yes to an outcome that never happens — so is God offering David a future that was never really possible? Joe, Eric, Greg, and Micah press hard on deception, conscience, contingency, and the sovereignty of God without flattening the hard parts.
