This week we are beginning our Fall series which will cause us to shine a spotlight on the life of King David with an eye towards answering this question, "What is the true measure of a life?"
David was a complicated figure full of dualities and extremes. In that sense he is so much like us and yet God says that he was a man after His own heart and that he fulfilled the purposes of God in his generation.
Can those things be said of you? Are you living a life that leaves a godly legacy that leads others to Christ?
That's what we will consider in this series.
01 Legacy - Fulfilling the purposes of God
September 4, 2022 • Pastor Doug Forman • Acts 13:13–39

07 Legacy - Guard Your Heart
October 16, 2022 • Pastor Doug Forman • 2 Samuel 11
We live in an age where sexual sin is rapidly being erased as a category of sin. It's in the air that we breathe and it's wreaking havoc on lives, marriages, and ministries. This week we will look at David's sin with Bathsheba. It's a dark chapter in his life that was the product of an unguarded and unbound heart that led to sin compounding on sin to devastating effect. This is obviously a sensitive topic for younger attenders. We will keep our consideration at a PG level but parents of younger children may want to watch this first and decide if they want their younger children to view the message. If so, a family discussion about the message after it has finished is advised.
11 Legacy - A Heart to Worship
November 20, 2022 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 65
It is a truism to say that everyone worships someone or something and what we worship shapes the trajectory of our life. Therefore, what we worship has a direct connection to the legacy we leave for others. David was a man who, despite his struggles and imperfections, had a heart to worship our God. This week, as we anticipate Thanksgiving, we will consider David's legacy of worship as preserved for us in Psalm 65. It is our prayer that you would build your life on right worship that will inspire others and lead them to Christ.
12 Legacy - The Importance of Finishing Well
November 27, 2022 • Pastor Doug Forman • 1 Kings 2:1–4
This week marks the conclusion of our fall series that has sought to answer this one question, "What is the true measure of a life?" Our model for this weighty consideration has been king David who has proven to be a truly complex human being. That's good news for us, because we tend to be complex human beings and yet his life is proof that it's possible to please God in life and in death. It is our prayer that this brief series will equip each of us to do the very same thing with the one brief life we've been given to live.
