I interviewed David Morton, pastor, musician, and an avid reader of heroic literature. We discussed examples, the value of reading heroic literature, and how to read it for maximum benefit.

Samuel is an epic in the Old Testament of the Bible that describes ancient Israel about 1,000 years before Christ. It’s a story about the rise and fall of the house of Saul, Israel’s first king, and the fall and rise of David, who defeated a giant named Goliath.
