Like Everybody Else

Read 1 Samuel 7-9

1 Samuel 8:5 "And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations."

Another type of story is a story about a person who wants to be like everybody else. The character is tired of being different and wants to fit in better.

It’s often a children’s or teenager’s story. Kids struggle with growing up and can always identify with a protagonist who doesn’t feel like he belongs.

But it can be an effective adult’s story, too. Our hero struggles to fit in to a new family or community she finds herself in.
