Description

When King David decides to count his fighting men, it seems like a harmless leadership move—until God responds with judgment. In this episode, we explore the tension between pride and trust, the hidden dangers of relying on numbers over faith, and the surprising way God turns punishment into mercy. What does it mean to offer a sacrifice that costs you something? And how can we lead with humility in a results-driven world? Join us as we unpack the final chapter of 2 Samuel—and discover why a threshing floor became holy ground.
