One of the most powerful evangelistic tools at our disposal is our own personal testimony. In so many ways, our testimony is more valuable than a thousand apologetic arguments. People can argue with facts and details, but they cannot argue with your personal experience. In our text this week, David gives us his personal testimony of faith. He shares with us in vivid detail and descriptive poetry w...

Our text this week is a bit messy. In fact, some might say it is gruesome. No matter how you describe the passage, the pictures presented in this passage confront us with some uncomfortable truths and some troubling questions. Yet we are encouraged by Paul’s words to Timothy as he challenged him to “…continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learne...

In December of 2022 at an Australian wedding, guests enjoyed food and dancing in celebration of the newly married couple. Within minutes the celebration turned sour as two men got into a fight that eventually involved a larger number of guests and spilled out into a street outside the venue. You talk about spoiling a party! It is amazing how quickly jealousy, envy, accusations and pride can turn c...

President Lincoln did what no president has ever done. He led the nation into a war against fellow Americans. After that war had concluded, his greatest and most difficult work was in front of him. How would he treat those people who had rebelled? It was a crucial time of reconstruction and reconciliation. David now faces a similar dilemma. David has prevailed in this civil war. The enemy has been...

A love for a child is immediate and unconditional. There is nothing like it in all the world. Your child is brought into the world, and you love him. You would give your life for him. How many of you would be willing to give up your child for a good man? How many of you would give up your child for a sinner and an enemy? This is exactly what God did for us in the giving of His own Son to die for o...

The story of Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ, is a remarkable story. He and his wife were newly married but found themselves increasingly frustrated and disappointed with the course of their lives. In the midst of that time, Bill sensed God calling him to surrender his life totally and completely to Him. Bill and his wife obeyed. They made a list of all their dreams, plans and go...

Years ago, a mathematical formula was developed to determine the odds of all the appropriate factors necessary to create and sustain life. The determination was that it is virtually impossible. In other words, there are a lot of scientific coincidences that are sustaining your life right now. If you believe that life is a product of time and chance, then you will likely be an evolutionist. If you...

Have you ever found yourself in a place of deep, emotional pain with the realization that you are responsible for the circumstances? In 2 Samuel 15, we find David at the lowest point in his reign. His family is a mess. His son has betrayed him and led a coup against him. His closest adviser has helped to engineer the rebellion.

Sometimes the most painful hurts we encounter in life come from those who are closest to us. Certainly, this was the case between Absalom and David. Absalom murdered David’s eldest son, Amnon, to avenge his sister’s rape. Can you imagine the emotional pain that David must have felt? It is hard to imagine how anyone could care perfectly for their family in the midst of that kind of relational heart...
