Today we begin a new series called, Rise: Live Your Best Life Yet. And Pastor Mark Jobe often says your best life isn’t going to happen by accident. And yes, it may be risky, but you have to be intentional about where you’re going. So in this brand new Moody Presents teaching series, Dr. Mark Jobe will be contrasting two individuals who both had humble beginnings, but one rose and the other sank … David and Saul. And how the attitude of these two men made all the difference.
