Another disappointing story

As the intern and I looked over Sunday’s bulletin, he noted our reading from Samuel and asked, “Did you hear about the fall of the other King David?”
David Petraeus’s moral failings aren’t the same as his biblical namesake’s. Unlike poor Uriah, no one went to die so the former CIA director could bed Paula Broadwell. Besides, Petraeus was a secular leader, and he was not known particularly as a man “after God’s own heart.”
Still, we expected more.
