Today, we step into one of the great turning points in the entire story of David — a moment when the kingdom shakes, loyalties shift, and the consequences of years of unresolved pain finally erupt into out-and-out rebellion.

If chapter 14 felt tense, chapter 15 feels explosive.

This is the chapter where the unthinkable happens:

David is forced to flee his own family and city because his own son has stolen the hearts of the people.

It is heartbreaking. It is shocking, and it is deeply human.

This chapter is more than a history lesson because I believe it is meant to warn us about what happens when ambition replaces humility, when image replaces integrity, when bitterness replaces reconciliation, and when leadership is tested when it is most vulnerable. So, let’s step into another gripping chapter in the life of David — a chapter where the king is on the run, the kingdom is in crisis, and God is quietly at work behind the scenes.

Welcome to the episode.
