The hearts of the people are swayed towards David's son Absalom in his rebellion against the king. We focus on David's advisor Ahithophel who changes his service to Absalom and the advice he gives him that is shaped by revenge and anger towards David. Our words, actions and thoughts all begin with the heart.

God's desire is to bring the lost child home so they not remain an outcast. As long as there is breath in your lungs, as long as there is life there is hope. The story is not over yet and God is weaving together this beautiful story to bring the lost one home.

There is a battle raging for your heart and soul! We look at this well known story of David on his roof seeing a beautiful woman and taking her. His sin leads to more sin until he finally kills an innocent man. From this passage we look at 3 signs you are loosing the battle for your heart and 4 signs you are winning the battle.

Guest speaker Eric Wood brings a stand alone message from the book of Luke.

There is hope for the broken because the loving-kindness of our king offers protection, provision and position in his kingdom. It's our job to respond by acknowledging our brokenness and accepting the invitation!

Guest speaker Bob Moffat shares some reflections on a long life of following Jesus and the areas that still amaze him! It's a great listen!

This important chapter serves as a North Star for believers that points to Jesus, the seed of David whose throne and kingdom will be established forever and build a house for God's name! It speaks for Jesus as the King whose authority and kingdom will last forever and he will build the house of God, a worshiping community of Jesus followers!

In this chapter, we see the signs of David responding to the Lord with a half-heart, appearing to follow the Lord but in his own way, no-heart as hurt and disappointment motivate David to abandon God's presence for 3 months and then finally a whole heart as David is forgiven, free and worshiping the Lord!

In this section, David is at the top of the world! The first story is about David uniting the kingdom, he wins a decisive battle and builds a house and a name for himself in Jerusalem. This external glory covered some internal rot in the life of David that would eventually lead to his downfall. The second story of a battle with the Philistines demonstrated David's humbleness to inquire of the Lord first and obey his commandments. To see the Lord break through in power in our lives, we need to live humbly, daily dependent on the Lord.

Guest speaker Eric Wood. In this violent chapter we are guided to see the importance of waiting on the Lord and how David gives us an example of what we are to be doing while we wait.
