Listen "44. Lullabies for a Lunatic"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of By the Way, we slow our chronological walk through the Bible to zoom in on a pivotal and often-overlooked moment: when the Spirit of the Lord departs from Saul, and David — freshly anointed but not yet enthroned — steps in to serve.From Saul’s spiritual spiral to David’s surprising patience, we explore how humility, obedience, and the Spirit of God all play out in one of the Bible’s strangest jam sessions. Plus, we’ll talk about how the Spirit’s role differs between the Old and New Testaments, why David doesn’t stage a royal coup, and how all of this points forward to Jesus.Also, stay tuned for our team’s favorite “calming music” playlists — from light jazz to Gregorian chant to absolute silence.
