David: After God's Own Heart

What does it look like to pursue God with everything you have?

King David is described as “a man after God’s own heart” but what does that really mean?

His story includes: Inspired worship, adultery, deep friendship, betrayal, triumphant victories, agonizing defeats, excellent leadership, family chaos, great faithfulness to God and devastating moral failures.

David gives us hope that through all the ups and downs we can learn what it means to pursue God’s heart with everything we have.

Lessons from the Wilderness

"We've all experienced wilderness seasons in life. King David's journey, both literal and metaphorical, teaches valuable lessons about God's work during these challenging times."

Deep Friendship

Deep friendship seems to be a lost art these days and loneliness is an epidemic. David & Jonathan demonstrate a deep friendship that we can learn from in our own relationships.

David & Goliath

"Why is the David & Goliath story in the Bible? Is it just a motivational tale for the underdog, or does it hold deeper meaning for our daily battles?"

Don't Judge a Book by its Cover

Have you ever been overlooked because someone didn’t think you had what it took? Have you ever overlooked yourself because you didn’t think you had what it took? Fortunately, God calls and equips unlikely people to accomplish His purposes.
