Saul and David were real people. They had real fears, real anxieties, real insecurities...just like you and me! Join me as we take about 20 minutes each morning to dive deeply into the lives of these two deeply flawed men. Rather than just reading their stories for facts and information, we will slow down enough to try to feel their experiences alongside of them. Instead of simply judging or celebrating them, we'll attempt to empathize with them. Maybe we'll learn a thing or two about ourselves along the way! Thanks for listening! -Ben

    Intro

    Thanks for being a part of this little experiment! This is a project I've been dreaming about for a couple years now. The current unexpected circumstances of my life my have provided me with some unanticipated space to try to actually develop this idea. My main goal is to help ME connect more deeply with the heart of God as I walk the stories of Saul and David, but I hope it can be helpful for you as well!
