  • Ep. 7 | King David: The Timing of God’s Purpose

    This is episode 7 of the King David sermon series podcast and the issue that is at hand is one we all may struggle with at times. Would God ask me to disobey God in order to fulfill the will of God? It isn’t a blessing if you have to sin to get it! It’s not our will, our way or our timing but God’s.

  • The Beast of Burden

    We hope you have enjoyed the first four episodes of the podcast sermon series about King David, a story that leaves you yearning for a True King.

    In the beginning of this episode, we revisit the example of Hannah from episode 1 of King David, the rivalry intensified by societal expectations and personal desires. We then transition into Martin Luther's theological perspective, contemplating the timeless struggle when we are dealing with the conscience, or “The Beast of Burden” we will either try to self-clean or distract to escape the inner turmoil. This episode sheds light on how true peace is found not in self-reliance but in faith and the promises of God.
