In this opening episode, Dr. Ben Akers and Dr. Tim Gray explore the dramatic beginning of the "House of David" series, focusing on Saul’s disobedience and the spiritual consequences that follow. They unpack how fear, pride, and political compromise lead to Saul’s downfall, while David emerges as a humble shepherd with a heart for God. The episode draws from 1 Samuel 15 and highlights the biblical tension between worldly power and divine obedience. Viewers are invited to reflect on how fear can steal our calling and how true leadership begins with faithfulness. This commentary sets the stage for the spiritual and narrative arc of David’s journey.
