In today’s conversation, we’ll see the nation of Israel—the nation over whom God has ruled as a faithful King for centuries—reject God and demand an earthly king, all out of a desire to be like everyone else. We’ll watch the sovereignty of God play out once again, as God orchestrates events, connects people, and gives the nation what they want. We’ll marvel at the potential which awaited King Saul—as God transformed him into the anointed leader of his people—and we’ll ponder the truth that it’s ultimately God’s Spirit which qualifies the unqualified. So, pull up a chair at our table, and let’s dive into the conversation.
