You Need a King - Who You Gonna Call, Part 1

from Better News Podcast · host Ricky Alcantar

Saul is facing the greatest military threat of his reign, and for the first time, he has no one to call. Samuel is dead. David is gone. The Lord has gone silent. So Saul disguises himself, slips out in the dead of night, and seeks out a medium to summon the dead. It is one of the most desperate moments in all of 1 Samuel. Most of us have never consulted a medium, but the impulse underneath it, the desperate reach for a presence, a word, anything solid to hold on to, is one every one of us knows."Mighty Fortress" by Sovereign Grace Music, used with permission.
