Show Notes

In so many cultures, people have given arbatrary value to people based on their gender, family, race or age. That's super clear to see in the Hebrew inheritance system and culture. Firstborn men were given all the inheritance, social benefit, and status- so why does God so often pick leaders who were NOT firstborn? How can we learn from the people God puts in front of us as leaders? And how can we tell if a leader is actually "annointed" or if we are simply following someone because we like what they look like or say?
