HOW MUCH MORE Matt. 7:9-11 Often we develop the mistaken attitude that prayer and particularly persistent prayer is the means by which we wrest from God the things which He does not really want us to have. Quite the contrary is true. Prayer is the divinely ordained channel ...read more

Davids Big Flaw

Contributed by Art Campbell on Sep 5, 2007

David was a successful man - a warrior, poet and king. Yet he had one major flaw that was almost his undoing - his children. This message contrasts David’s great success with his great heartache.

One of my favourite Bible heroes is King David. I’m sure you’re all familiar with the story of David and Goliath, the boy who bested a giant. But there’s a lot more to David’s life than this story. In many ways he’s the kind of man that many of us guys would like to be. David was marked out for ...read more
