Paul/Timothy In Galatia To Deliver Council's Decrees Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 27, 2017

A Fisherman's Confession Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on May 23, 2009

I Think Myself Happy

David Is Made King Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 20, 2003

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
