2 Samuel 8

October 20, 2019 • Pastor Jim Thomas • 2 Samuel 8

The Old Testament overflows with examples of how we are all longing for the love of a righteous king who loves justice and deals in mercy. But this is so far from the real world many people have experienced. Is there any hope that things will ever change? Join Pastor Jim as he explores a 3,000 year old example of this in the people of God under King David all foreshadowing what we find in David’s greater son, the greater king, Jesus Christ.

2 Samuel 19:9-43

February 23, 2020 • Pastor Jim Thomas • 2 Samuel 19:9–43

This passage describes the return to Jerusalem of King David as God’s chosen covenant king over Israel. But the transition is anything but easy or smooth as various individuals and groups respond to David’s return in different ways. As pro-David and anti-David elements jockey for position, the tension becomes tangible, squabbles and bickering spring up all over the place. How does God lead David to respond? In what ways do these events point us forward to Christ, the true king, not only the king we always wanted, but also the king we have always needed.

Join Pastor Jim for this study of a 3,000 year old snapshot of redemption history when the hope of the Gospel was foreshadowed in the life and times of Israel’s King David.
