Tune in as Pastor Josh continues to preach through 1 Samuel this morning, this morning teaching us about Israel’s need for a faithful king:
“Because of Saul’s unfaithfulness, God will give his kingdom to another; ‘a man after his own heart’ to whom He will grant an eternal covenant and promise an eternal kingdom. God’s response to human failure, time and again, is to establish and renew covenant with his people on the basis of God’s own faithfulness. This is the awesome mercy of God.”….Why was Saul rejected while David was accepted? The author emphasizes their similarities, not their differences. The story of David is not that God has finally found a better human who would be a better king. It is a story of God’s grace.”
