Episode notes

What do you do when the shortcut to everything you've been promised lies right in front of you? David faces exactly that question as he stands over the sleeping King Saul, with the kingdom seemingly only one spear thrust away. This episode, focusing on 1 Samuel 26, explores one of the great tests of David's character, revealing why he refused to grasp power by sinful means, what it means to trust God when justice is delayed, and how David's story prepares us for Jesus Christ, the King who chose the path of suffering before glory.
