If you want an older song based on this passage, here's one from Keith Green called 'On the Road to Jericho'
And there's a more recent song that comes from non-Christian artist, the Mountain Goats, a song called 1 Samuel 15:23.

Luke 9 -- Is this the Jesus we're following?
Today's Reading: 1 Samuel 10-12 and Luke 9:37-62
A dramatic reading of our passage from Luke:
But if you have a half hour then here's the video I'd really encourage you to watch. It's a powerful talk (given at the same conference) about the cost of following Jesus:

Long Live the King! Live Love and Prosper!
Today's Reading: 1 Samuel 7-9 and Luke 9:18-36
In our Luke passage today we see the Transfiguration. This painting is by Raphael:
Leonard Nimoy (who played Spock in Star Trek) died earlier this year. Did you know he also played Samuel in a movie about King David?
Others:
The hymn 'Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing' connects back to 1 Samuel 7. Here's a modern retelling by what the original psalmist went through: you can find it here.

On a Nice Spring Day
Today's Reading: 1 Samuel 4-6 and Luke 9:1-17
The video above is so pleasant. :-D With the sun shining down, the wind blowing those pages of the Bible, and a guy drawing some art in crayon. I love the way the artist, Tom Batty, is bringing passages of Scripture to the youtube audience.

What Makes Good Friday Good?
Today's Reading: Judges 19-21 and Luke 7:31-50
Repentance and forgiveness. Sorrow that leads to joy. With God, every Good Friday leads to an Easter. So hold on. Wherever you're at in life, hold on, because God promises that everything is going to be okay.

Samson Part II
Today's Reading: Judges 16-18 and Luke 7:1-30
The clip above is from The Bible miniseries. Samson's hair was a symbol of the vow he and his parents had made to God. The loss of his hair was symbolic of his breaking of the vow. If you were making a movie on the Bible, how would you represent Samson?
Others:
For the New Testament passage here's a video by the Mormon Channel of Jesus raising the widow's son from the dead.

Samson Went Back to Bed
Today's Reading: Judges 13-15 and Luke 6:27-49
The song above is by Regina Spektor and is inspired by the biblical story of Samson and Delilah. Regina has a beautiful voice and most of her songs have a narrative quality to them.
