Biblical examples of how God interacts: David, Mary, and Paul

The hosts survey scripture for how God actually interacts with people: David hiding from Saul does not sit around waiting for instructions; Mary and Joseph receive an angel's announcement unasked; Paul on the second missionary journey simply decides to revisit churches (Acts 16-17), is blocked by the Spirit from Asia, and gets the Macedonian dream. They add an office analogy — you would not email the CEO expecting a personal reply about your chair — and argue the 'star of the story' David complex warps our expectations, since God only called one David.
