    David Is Made King Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 20, 2003
    based on 44 ratings
     | 13,998 views

    David becomes King by God’s plan but as a result of a series of events which are sometimes ungodly in nature. God is able to use ungoldy actions by sinful men and women to bring about his good purposes in history.

    I think it’s easy to have a romantic view of the history of David as King of Israel. It’s such a great story isn’t it? The good looking shepherd boy who becomes king. The youngest son who is chosen and anointed by God to lead his people. The young lad who defeats the battle seasoned giant Goliath. ...read more

    The fifth deadly sin is lust. Like, the others, this one permeates our culture. It is everywhere. It tempts us all. It starts out so innocently but even the smallest seed can germinate to destructive proportions. We’ll see how to guard against it.

    SE7EN: LU5T 2 Samuel 11; Philippians 4:7-8 June 8, 2008 The seventh deadly sin is lust. I hope you have been able to see how our culture and our lives are inundated with these sins and how they often run hand-in-hand with each other. Our cultural advertising motto is “sex sells.” Sex sells ...read more

     | 4,856 views

    America is at a moral breaking point similar to those reached by Israel at various points in her history. These breaking points were either followed by revival or God's judgment. Will America learn from the lessons of history?

    One of the greatest revivals in American history happened right here in Kentucky. Perhaps you’ve heard of the Cane Ridge Revival that took place not too far from here in Bourbon County in the early 1800’s. It has been described as the largest and most famous camp meeting of the ...read more

    Jesus performed seven signs in the Gospel of John; the second sign was the cleansing of the Temple.

    The Sign of Cleansing the Temple John 2: 13-25 Religious zeal was certainly a great part of Jewish culture: We saw in John 2: 1-12 that the purification rites of the Jews were held in high esteem, but exterior washings did not provide heart cleansing.
