We wrapped up David - The Making of a King this last weekend. Let's recap with Jeff how the series went. In this video Jeff discusses his pursuit and desire for our church to chase after God's heart, to find opportunities to obey God 24/7, and how a few significant events at our church were divinely interwoven into our series including a season of exploration with Three Rivers Church and the completion of our Rise Up campaign.

This week during our weekend services we learned how David respected the authority of King Saul. Today, Jake interviews one of our  missionary partners Ritch Sandford about the role of biblical authority. Ritch describes the three spheres of authority: home, church, and state, and how the sphere of influence for each of those is described in the Bible. Using his experiences in the military, as a pastor, and as a father, he describes how these spheres function. He also discusses a critical point of contention between Christians and the Mormon church and their stance on the authority of Jesus Christ.

In week 6 of our David: The Making of a King series, we talked about how David was a continual learner. This conversation will be a way for us to do the same by learning about some of the cool things that God is doing in other local churches and in their ministry areas. This week Jake McNamara  has a conversation with other online pastors Stetson Butler (Chapelstreet Church) and Denis Beausejour (Willow Creek) as they learn together how to navigate the changing ministry landscape.

This weekend we talked about how David was a musical prodigy... which got us thinking about many of the amazing musicians at The Compass!

What does it look like to be a prodigy and follow your passion? How can you use that to serve God and others? And how can times of looking back at the faithfulness of God help you lead moving forward? We get to hear from Tyvon Dukes this week on our Midweek podcast about how God used his musical talent and his circumstances to do all of that and more.

Kicking off our new series, David: The Making of a King, we start with our student's pastor Pete Sutton and an overview of David's early years, focusing on using imagination to fill in the “white spaces” of these stories. In this week's episode Pete provides ways to help try and think through what would the battle with Goliath actually have looked like, or being a shepherd, etc to illuminate your experience studying these well-known stories.
