Texts:
2 Samuel 19-20
2 Corinthians 11

Samuel:
Chapter 19 makes clear that grief is a luxury that kings can't afford. And this section also makes it clear that re-establishing authority for David was a crucial and a difficult task.

Corinthians:
The "super apostles" seem to be back. The leaders who followed after Paul and apparently preached "a different gospel" drive Paul absolutely nuts! He even acknowledges that he "is talking like a madman" (v 23)
He has nothing nice to say about them. And he'll use any rhetorical trick he can come up with to make his point.
Who are the "super apostles" today that drive you nuts?
