Johnny Manziel hit the High School football scene dazzling fans with his natural skills & ability. After being pursued by several colleges, Johnny landed at Texas A&M. In 2012, he led his team to beat the unbeatable, Alabama Crimson Tide, and earning the nick name Johnny Football and becoming the first college freshman to ever win the Heisman. As a sophomore in 2014, he was drafted by the NFL to go pro. His career took off like a rocket but fizzled out due to a series of bad decisions and lack of discipline. As we look to our study in 1 Samuel 31 this weekend, we’ll recall King Saul’s promising start, but ended in tragedy. His death, which is the focus of this final chapter, is a powerful warning to us all. A warning of the end of every person and the foolishness of trusting in anyone or anything other than King Jesus.
