New Beginnings

January 8, 2023 • J.D. Greear • 2 Samuel 1—5

In this message from 2 Samuel, Pastor J.D. walks us through a few ways in which David was "a man after God's own heart." And yet, what we ultimately see through the first several chapters of this book is that not even David was the king that Israel was looking for. The king that they needed—and that we need today—was one fully without sin, willing to lay down his life even for his enemies. With such a King on the throne, we can learn to accept with joy what God has for us this year and beyond.

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.
