    Guidance for coping with times of grief.

    COPING WITH GRIEF  1999 by Mark Beaird Text: 2 Samuel 12:16-23 Few stories of someone’s grief are as touching as that of Horatio C. Spafford, who lived from 1828-1888.  Spafford had known peaceful and happy days as a successful attorney in Chicago. He was the father ...read more

    David & Bathsheba Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Nov 30, 2003
    based on 46 ratings
     | 19,684 views

    Here we discover, once again, the two central elements in the way God deals with his people. Here we find God’s justice and mercy going hand in hand as he deals with a failed leader.

    Someone asked me the other day, "Why do we have to have all these stories from the Old Testament. They’re so gruesome!" Well, the reason we have to hear these stories is because they’ve been put here to tell us about God. You see, these aren’t just stories about David, or Saul, or Samuel. They’re ...read more

    David's Hard Heart

     | 7,152 views

    David’s heart was hardened by sin. Only the death of his newborn son softened it. This sermon looks at three aspects of his son’s death and David’s reaction.

    “David’s Hard Heart” Text: 2 Samuel 12:1-23 Introduction: Sin carries consequences! Some are immediate; others come much later in life and some last an entire lifetime. And, of course, any sin of which we do not repent and ask for forgiveness, carries with it the consequence of an eternity in a ...read more

    This message looks at David’s affair with Bathsheba and what it cost him.

    The Cost of Cheating! Let me tell you a story. It all started with a man; figures doesn¡¦t it? He wasn¡¦t just any man he was the most powerful man in the nation, top political dog. He was it, he had arrived, he had it made and he was on the top of the heap. But he hadn¡¦t done it by himself, ...read more

    Trouble In The King's Household Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 3, 2004
    based on 40 ratings
     | 6,602 views

    As great a king as David was, he was still a human king with all the flaws of any human being. It would take the coming of Jesus before we had a king who truly reflected God’s heart in all he did; whose leadership would fully reflect God’s character.

    What we’re looking at today is not pretty. Incest, rape, murder, political intrigue leading to a coup d’état, David running for his life. And again we wonder what to make of it all. Why is it in here? Well, there are a couple of reasons it’s in here. One is to show how quickly God’s judgement on ...read more

    Disregarding God’s moral and ethical principles as David did can have disastrous consequences.

    I recently saw a photo of three expensive cars encased in ice in the garage of a million-dollar house when the pipes froze while the owner was away. One of the rules for living in a cold climate is to take special precautions so your water pipes don’t freeze. Disregarding that rule can exact a ...read more

In the garden, Satan wasn’t after the elephant or even the lion. He understood authority ...read more

     | 14,645 views

    This is a sermon about the proper way to serve God. There is a difference between being a cook and a cook in the white house. And there is a difference between being a servant and a servant of God.

    Who Are You Serving 2 Samuel 15:15 Here we read about the loyalty of David’s servants. Absalom (David’s own son) was starting an up an uprising against David. Absalom apparently resented being ignored by his father and resented his brother Ammon going unpunished for the raping Tamar. Absalom ...read more

    This is about God’s forgiveness.

    Last week we looked at the sin of David. He had an affair with the wife of one of his best soldiers. She wound up pregnant. He tried to cover it up. He sent her husband back to the war carrying his own death sentence. In verse 24 of chapter 11 we find the words of the messenger to the king, ...read more

    This is about prayer.

    Let me bring everyone up to speed on what is happening. King David wanders around on the roof of his palace and notices a beautiful woman. He has an affair with her. She gets pregnant.

    based on 54 ratings
     | 19,548 views

    This sermon relates the grief of David over the death of Absalom to God’s grief over our sin.

    Turn with me to 2 Samuel 18. Read 2 Samuel 18:24-33. Here we see a sad picture. King David is well advanced in years. He is no longer the young vibrant man that he once was. He is a broken man. The years had taken their toll on this once strong warrior. He had seen his family fall apart ...read more

    It takes time invested to raise children. King David is a bad example of how to raise children

    INTRODUCTION A group of expectant fathers were in a waiting room, while their wives were in the process of delivering babies. A nurse came in and announced to one man that his wife had just given birth to twins. "That’s quite a coincidence" he responded, "I play for the Minnesota Twins!" A few ...read more
