Season 9 Episode 11 | Prophets, Shepherds, Poets and Kings | 1 Samuel 16

Prophets, Shepherds, Poets and Kings is a series delving into the history of the people of God found in 1 and 2 Samuel. Beginning with a longed for baby, leading to a cry for a king and the establishment and dissolution of a kingdom, the series will focus on the lives of Samuel, Saul and David. The story continues in 1 Samuel 16 after God's rejection of Saul, when we encounter his new anointed king. There is discussion of appearance and perception, of the role of the Holy Spirit and of the power of music and the arts to soothe, along with the knotty question of whether evil spirits come from God.  There are segments to enjoy including the reading of the passage, 'The Cloud' and 'What Now?'. This episode was engineered and edited by Aimee Higgins. ------- Show Notes The Outspoken Bible is hosted by Fiona Stewart with Neil Glover and Jen Robertson.
