    I ask the question, what motivates you as a Christian? What makes you do the things you do? I then make a contrast between David and Saul and ask, what motivated David to weep for a man who wanted to kill him, and what motivated Saul to pursue David.

    Title: What Motivates You? Text: I Sam 18:1-12; 19:9-11; 24:1-7; 26:5-12; 31:6; II Sam 1:11-12 Pray!!!

    Jonathan’s friendship with David has always been the model of the ideal friendship for Christians. But there is an even deeper application to this description of the love Jonathan had for David. Do you know what it is?

    OPEN: I sang “You’ve Got A Friend” (a song by James Taylor and made popular by Carole King - if you’d like a copy of the words with guitar chords e-mail me at jesus@kconline.com) APPLY: Several years ago the song “You’ve Got A Friend” was extremely popular.

    David as a model in his relationship with Saul on what to do when someone mistreats you.

    I’ve titled the sermon, “when you are stabbed in the back” because it’s a fact of life that at some point in your life someone is going to stab you in the back, take advantage of you, cheat you, rob you, or do you wrong in some way. A “friend” might gossip about you, sharing your deepest darkest ...read more

    "Contract Or Covenant?"

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Apr 30, 2004
    based on 19 ratings
     | 5,786 views

    Most people live in a "Contract World," and not in a "Covenant World." Contracts are written with the idea of failure in mind. That is, "What if things do not work out?" A covenant comes with the word, "Everlasting."

    "Contract or Covenant?” Jonathan and David, best friends. Jonathan needed a friend... I have often wondered why Jonathan himself did not take on the giant Goliath? He displayed the right kind of faith and courage needed for the mission in 1 Samuel 14 when he and his armour bearer took on the ...read more

    Don't Let Your Haters Get You Down

     | 32,977 views

    It is a great mystery to me; I truly cannot understand how people with Jesus in their hearts can be so hateful and hurtful towards one another? How can they be so impatient and angry at each other? When that should love each other instead.

    6 And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick. 7 And the women answered one another as they played, and ...read more

    “the Blessing And Curse Of Success”

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Jul 1, 2013
     | 8,783 views

    Saul and David illustrate the differences between true and false success in life.

    If there is a quote that I count among my favorites, it is the quote from George W. Truett, who said that “True success is knowing God’s will and being in the center of it.” Implied in that quote is that there is a type of success that is true and another that is false. In this ...read more
