Author: The Robertson Family December 5, 2025 Duration: 49:34
Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian explore the principle of “no kings” and how cultural envy pushed Israel to demand a leader who looked impressive but lacked character and paid for it dearly. The guys  trace the fallout from choosing Saul, contrast it with David’s repentant heart, and show how wanting to resemble other nations sent Israel down a destructive path.  In this episode: Genesis 11; Genesis 12; Genesis 3, verse 24; Genesis 4; Exodus 14; Exodus 16; Exodus 17; Exodus 25; Deuteronomy 17; Joshua 2; Joshua 7; Judges 2; Judges 21; 1 Samuel 4, verses 19–22; 1 Samuel 5; 1 Samuel 6; 1 Samuel 8; 1 Samuel 9; 1 Samuel 10; Jonah 1; Hebrews 12, verses 28–29; Psalm 51; Romans 1 Today's conversation is about Lesson 1 of The David Story: Shepherd, Father, King taught by Hillsdale Professor Justin Jackson.

There’s a particular kind of conversation that happens around a kitchen table or on a front porch, where faith isn’t a formal topic but a lived reality woven into everyday stories. That’s the feeling you get with Unashamed with the Robertson Family. Phil, Al, Jase, and Zach, along with occasional guests, gather not as distant figures but as neighbors, sharing their lives from West Monroe, Louisiana. They discuss scripture and its practical application with a direct, often humorous perspective that comes from decades of walking with Christ through both trials and triumphs. This podcast is built on the conviction that the Gospel is for everyone, and the Robertsons deliver that message without pretense. You’ll hear candid reflections on family, personal struggles, and the joys of belief, all rooted in a deep study of the Bible. It feels less like a scheduled broadcast and more like pulling up a chair to listen in on a genuine, encouraging discussion among friends who are unafraid to be exactly who they are. Each episode invites you into a space where faith is tangible, stories are heartfelt, and the focus remains on sharing God’s word in a way that resonates long after you’ve finished listening.
