Mellie reads 2 Samuel 9–12 (NIV), summarizing David’s mercy to Mephibosheth, the military conflicts with the Ammonites and Arameans, and David’s moral collapse involving Bathsheba and Uriah.

She highlights Nathan’s bold confrontation, David’s sincere repentance, and the painful consequences that follow—even after forgiveness—along with lessons about resisting temptation, keeping promises, and the cost of sin.

The episode closes with Mellie’s personal reflections and a prayer, encouraging discernment, accountability, and reliance on God.
