The stories of King David are some of the most well-worn in the world: David the shepherd, David defeating Goliath, David seducing Bathsheba in his Jerusalem palace. David’s story is earthy, human- in fact, it’s the longest single narrative of a human being in the Bible. In the stories of David, the Scriptures depict a human life at is very best and its very worst. This summer, we’re listening to the story of David- a human life both fascinating and flawed- so that we can learn to pay attention to the work of God in our own earthy, fascinating, flawed lives.
