The poor choices of the aging king lead to catastrophic consequences within his family. How does the story of one of David's lowest moments shed light on the corrosive effects of sin in our lives? As we continue in our series, Kings & Kingdoms, Pastor Ben takes us through the tragic story of King David and his son Absalom. Sin can often pass down and amplify through generations, but we have hope because God is in the business of bringing beauty from our ashes. Key Verses // 2 Samuel 13-19—Do you feel frustrated by a pattern of personal failures, overwhelmed by a chaotic culture, or disillusioned by a lack of meaning in everyday life? Your struggles do not mean you’re doomed. They’re actually a sign that you are alive. Now it’s a question of whether you will struggle well. Pastor Ben's new book, Rest & War, is a field guide designed to equip you to walk elegantly through the battlefield of life. Rest & War will be released on January 25, 2022.
