Today we finish up 2 Samuel, and look back at David's successes, failures, and God's presence throughout his life. We also talk about weird ways the Biblical story is sometimes chopped up into books, chapters, and verses.

Questions for reflection this week:

- How do we wrestle with God's presence in our good times and bad times?

- What can we learn from David's final words?
