On Sunday, Caleb returned us to chapter 9 of 1 Samuel. Speaking on the text he expounded on the story of Saul meeting with Samuel by highlighting some key elements. Caleb showed how Saul, like all of us, is in need of rescue, and thus we should always see each other as people needing rescue and the love of God. He also pinpointed how Samuel had already been given instruction by God on how he would be meeting the man who would be king. In understanding this Caleb explained the importance of acknowledging that it was God who provided Israel's king.
