Early in the journey the pattern of anxiety and complaining develops. But we survive the journey on regiments of mystery. Monday, October 5, 2015

Sometimes the call to serve the kingdom puts everything at risk that we worked hard to accomplish. The freedom to serve demands the surrender of dreams.

Saul was a reluctant leader who hid on the day he was made king. We still affirm reluctance in leaders—maybe too much. There is work to do, and time is short. March 17, 2014

The text says, ‘The Lord does not see as mortals see.’ So ho does the Lord see, when choosing a leader? Why did God call young David, you, and me? March 24, 2014

Text offers a depiction of God’s idea of community: ‘everyone who was in distress...in debt...and discontented’ joined David in a cave.

“How the mighty have fallen and the weapons of war perished.’ It’s tempting for leaders to live by weapons, and we all have them. But we actually die by them.
