Ep 1233 | John Luke Admits He Has ‘Tons’ of Enemies & the Bible Confirms Witches & Ghosts

from Unashamed with the Robertson Family · host The Robertson Family

Christian Huff awkwardly opens up a little too much about life at home, but John Luke quickly tops it by declaring he has not just one adversary, but tons of low-level foes, sparking a dramatic debate about what it means to trust God with the fate of our enemies. The guys move into the unsettling world of Saul’s downfall, the “ghostwife” of Endor, and the moment Scripture proves the dead can indeed speak. David’s restraint, Saul’s unraveling, and the haunting echo of Samuel’s return all point to the deeper truth about spiritual warfare, leadership, jealousy, and trusting God’s timing. In this episode: Genesis 1; Genesis 38; Exodus 7–14; 1 Samuel 13; 1 Samuel 15; 1 Samuel 16; 1 Samuel 17; 1 Samuel 18; 1 Samuel 22; 1 Samuel 24, verse 10; 1 Samuel 26; 1 Samuel 28; 1 Samuel 31; 2 Samuel 1; 2 Samuel 2; Hebrews 12, verse 1 Today's conversation is about Lesson 5 of The David Story: Shepherd, Father, King taught by Hillsdale Professor Justin Jackson.
