A Crack in the Armor: The Episode with Abigail

October 2, 2022 • J.D. Greear • 1 Samuel 25

One day, the story of your life will be told to the next generation. How do you want today’s chapter to be told? As a season of faithfulness, trust, and integrity? Or as the moment when you decided to walk away from everything—and everyone—you once served?

In this message from 1 Samuel 25, Pastor J.D. shows us King David at a critical juncture, fresh off his faithful response to the murderous King Saul. But when a smaller obstacle meets David, he stumbles and nearly falls. The only thing that prevents David from veering into a pattern of sin and foolishness is an obscure figure—one of the wisest (and least known) people in the entire Bible.

And I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

April 30, 2023 • J.D. Greear • 2 Samuel 24

Life Song

April 16, 2023 • J.D. Greear • 2 Samuel 22—23

A person’s last words can often be very telling. In this week’s message, Pastor J.D. gives us a glimpse into a song that David wrote during an earlier time in his life, which serves as a summary of both his life and his ministry. From these “last words” of David, we can learn important truths about God—truths that sustained David, and that can sustain us through even the darkest of times.

The Harvest of Poor Choices

March 26, 2023 • J.D. Greear • 2 Samuel 13—21

As we near the end of 2 Samuel, this week’s message from Pastor J.D. is one that examines the often far-reaching consequences of sin. These consequences played out not only in David’s life, but in the lives of many in his family. For those who have experienced the tragic results of sin, either your own or that of others, things may seem hopeless—but there is healing to be found in the true King who redeems and restores.
