America loves a good underdog story. When I watch the adventure of those depicted in the films Rudy and Rocky I still get chills. It takes guts for someone who is small in stature to stand up to an accomplished, gifted athlete.

While David is trying to escape his death, he begins to explain how, “For sometime [he] believed it was [him] who was dead, not they.…

away from God. The people are warned what would happen if they were given a king to rule them. Saul was chosen to become king but the most the people rejected him from the start.
