Summary
In this session, we honor the legacy of Samuel before diving into the high-stakes world of David and Paul. We explore 1 Samuel 25–26 to see how God reroutes our livid anger, using figures like Abigail to keep us from the "stain of bloodguilt." We then pivot to Acts 25–26 to dissect Paul's poise before Roman kings. Learn how to trade your personal vengeance for God's retribution and discover the "believer's blueprint" for defending your faith and your character when facing systemic injustice.
