Reflection Questions

1. Why did the people of Israel desire a king “like the nations,” and how does this reflect modern views of leadership?
2. In what ways did Saul’s leadership reveal a disconnect between authority and obedience?
3. What does God’s choice of David teach us about how He evaluates leaders?
4. Where might you be tempted to prioritize outward readiness over inward formation?
