Don't Keep The Sheep - Faith and Other Oddities Episode 87

Saul’s character is revealed as he reacts to Samuel’s prophecies, and the results aren’t good. Instead of heeding God’s prophet, he has been listening to the cursed sons of Eli, and it has caused Saul to lose sight of his true identity. Saul shows mercy in his dealings with Kenites as he attacks the Amalekites.
