It's common for the Christian to feel underappreciated in their service of the Lord. But what will keep you going and how can you remain faithful to God in that difficult place? Let’s talk about it today on Abounding Grace. In First Corinthians four verse one pastor Ed Taylor will key in on the description Paul gives of being a servant and a steward. That’s exactly what we’re to be as followers of God.

We see rebellion all around us... from the child who puts their foot down in disobedience to their parents, to the adult in prison who refuses to comply with the laws of the land. We even see rebellion applauded on t.v., and in the music of the day. But unrighteous rebellion is far from encouraged in the Scriptures! In fact, as we’ll see today, there are destructive consequences that come to those that would go down that road.

When someone hurts us deeply it would be easy for us to turn against them, never speak to them again and even harbor bitterness in our hearts. But today on Abounding Grace we’ll learn a much better response, and that is to forgive. We see this played out before our eyes in Second Samuel nineteen, as David forgives Shimmei.

Our pastor and teacher Ed Taylor picks up today where we left off in our study of Second Samuel! On today’s broadcast David finds himself in a situation from which there appears to be no recovery. Second Samuel chapter nineteen records a deep divide between David and the nation who betrayed him. What will it take to bring them together and is it even possible? With God all things are possible, and though it was a dark time, there’s a silver lining.

We all enjoy a good story with a happy ending, but we also know life doesn’t always look that way! Sometimes a life ends in a horrific way, and such was the case for Abasolom, David’s son. Today on Abounding Grace we’ll see the tragic conclusion to his life, and it can serve as a needed warning to us that if we choose a similar path in life we can expect the same sudden end!
