Parable Of The Perfect Father

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 18, 2017

Since the real hero of the story is the father, I thought it might be a good story to look at today. Let’s consider some gifts ...read more

David set in motion many troubles from his sin with Bathsheba. He is forgiven, but the consequences of sin play out. Not all problems are a result of sin and we don’t usually see such a one to one correlation between our past sin and our problems but it is explicitly clear in King David’s case.
