Yesterday (January 20th) I had the opportunity to watch some of the inauguration ceremonies of our new American President. I couldn’t help to think back to the first King of Israel and his inauguration. His name was Saul and I believe it would be good to look at a brief biography of his life and what we can learn from him about human politics, human nature and even our calling.
