In this episode, Dan Sanchez and Pastor Ridley Barron talked about the deeper and often overlooked parts of David's story in 1 Samuel. While most people know the famous tale of David and Goliath, this conversation dives into David's polygamy, the troubling nature of Saul's mental and spiritual decline, the mysterious account of Saul and the medium, and what it means when the Bible says David "strengthened himself in the Lord." They also reflect on Psalms tied to David's journey and wrap up with an encouraging reminder about remembering God's faithfulness through journaling and prayer.
