Today on Abounding Grace we’ll liken that to our spiritual lives. The Christian is to build their life on the foundation of Christ. Pastor Ed Taylor says there’s a right and wrong way to build!

Today on Abounding Grace pastor Ed Taylor turns to the disheartening story of Tamar, who was raped by her half-brother. We’ll examine the steps that led to this awful period in Tamar’s life as our study of Second Samuel continues. Amnon, the half-brother, had a friend who clearly had an opportunity to help steer him in the right direction... but he chose not to. We get all the details in Second Samuel thirteen.

We all sin. And when it happens we go through a wide range of emotions, from guilt and remorse to even anger with ourselves or others! But God is looking for repentance. We’ll see what that looks like in a human heart as we open Psalm 51. This was uttered by David after his sin with Bathsheeba and murder coverup. So if you’re finding it difficult to move on after you’ve sinned, I think you’ll find this helpful.

When our kids are little we expect certain behaviors like an occasional temper tantrum, sucking on a pacifier, and crawling around on the ground playing with toys. But if a thirty or forty year old is engaging in that same behavior we’d be concerned. That’s because we expect growth with time. And that’s true spiritually as well. Today on Abounding Grace pastor Ed Taylor shows us why spiritual growth is to occur from new birth until we go to be with the Lord.

All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Romans three tells us. And so it becomes necessary then to know what to do after we sin! Today on Abounding Grace pastor Ed Taylor returns to the story of David and Bathsheeba. I’m sure some of you are familiar with the scandalous story of adultery and murder coverup. Nine months after the sin, David is confronted, and then experiences what God’s forgiveness is all about. It’s a heart-warming story of love and grace.
