As the story continues to unfold, we’ll see that David's life, family, and kingdom will never be the same again. The ideal picture presented in 2 Samuel 8:15 is forever ruined. However, David's example in the aftermath of so much permanent loss, is an encouraging reminder of how sin's consequences need not define the rest of our lives.

This Sunday we’ll have a special message for Mother’s Day honoring women in our church family.

We’ll recognize the incredible impact of mothers as well as the spiritual impact and legacy of women who mentor and disciple others to affect people’s lives beyond even their own family.

Together we'll learn how key attributes of Jesus' character, faithfulness and whole-hearted surrender to God, are lived out powerfully in the example of women.

In this Sunday’s episode of 2 Samuel, David continues his emergency exit from Jerusalem and encounters three enemies trying to harm him.

Worst of all, one of these three was a close friend and adviser who turned against him.

We’ll see how David handles this ongoing crisis, and how you and I can respond well as Christians in the face of opposition.

This Sunday, we’re back in 2 Samuel, and the story of David’s family continues to unfold.

David’s son Absalom undermines his father and attempts a coup, forcing David on the run for his life.

As we’ll learn this Sunday, God is gracious and forgiving, but that doesn’t automatically erase the consequences for our sin.

David had created and caused many of the problems he now faces, but rather than run from God, he shows us how to remain confident in God, even in the midst of sin's consequences.
