There is an intersection between faith and politics that we wrestle with when it comes to political leaders. A political figure might even be deemed as the most powerful person in the world, but can that one person really change your life personally in the most important area? There are some caution signs and dangers when it comes to expecting a political figure to make your life better. There's a void we have in life, and we must explore if we are looking for a prominent political figure or a humbled servant to be the answer.

Will the freedom you want cause your soul to die? There is a special freedom that Christians possess and can cling to. With U.S. elections right around the corner, it is important to examine if you are chasing some freedoms that will actually put you in bondage.

Flawed family legacies have lasting impact on all who are associated with them, like King David's family. Looking at King David's life, let's reflect on our own families and the role that faith plays in navigating through these relationships. Let's bless our families instead of adding to the crazy cycles. True familial love may require tough choices, especially when family values clash with faith.

In the Bible, David thought he could get away with murder, and he was considered to be a man "after God's own heart." So how does something like this happen? Would you ever try to get away with murder or something just as evil? This episode focuses on how we are all killers in our own ways and dives into what we have the capability to kill and where we can place our focus in life.

When you go from nothing to something there are outlets the world encourages you to tap into. This episode challenges you to evaluate the outlets you're choosing and figure out the why. Looking at Saul who went from being a man of low status to becoming a powerful king, we share common reasons today for choosing bad outlets. King Saul's life serves as a cautionary lesson on how harmful outlets ruin us and the importance of choosing them carefully.

Think of a time when someone wronged you or mistreated you. When you've come from nothing to something, this hits especially hard because you don't want to go backward. Is the satisfaction that vengeance brings enough to keep you being "something"? Often, the reasons we want vengeance are rooted in the wrong mindset. David and King Saul give us a snapshot into the dos and don'ts of seeking vengeance. The sweetest vengeance is highlighted, and it's something we all need to focus on in this episode.

Have you ever thought that you were being overlooked? There may be some truth to this, but if you think that God doesn't see you, then you're mistaken. God has handpicked you for some awesome things. However, sometimes we get in the way of ourselves. In this episode, we look at the contrasting responses to God not overlooking two men who were once overlooked by others.
