Summary of charles r. swindoll's great lives

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The people had heard all the stories about the days when Israel was a great nation and about the years when Samuel was at the zenith of his career, when he subdued the Philistines and judged the land wisely and well. But they knew nothing of that personally. #2 The Israelites wanted a king like all the other nations, and they didn't want to wait on God to provide what they needed. So Samuel went to God in prayer, and the Lord told him to listen to the people's demands. #3 God allowed the people of Israel to choose their king, Saul, who looked good to them. But when Saul became hot-tempered and given to seasons of depression, it was clear that he was not fit to be king. #4 God chose David because he was a man after His own heart. He was not a super phenomenal person, but he was chosen because he was a man. He was not brilliant or wise, but he was chosen because he was foolish and weak.
