Join us for a 9 session study and discussion of the biblical books of 1 & 2 Samuel.
Weekly on Wednesdays beginning January 21 at 7:30pm, in person and online
There are two great stories of the bible that lead to Jesus. One is the liberation of the people from slavery under the leadership of Moses. The other is the establishment of a monarchy with the greatest king the people ever had: David. Jesus not only becomes a new and greater Moses leading people into a new kind of freedom. He is also claimed by prophecy as the Messiah-king of the world in the line of the great historic David.
But who was David as the story is told in the bible? Far from being some mythical, magical, superhero, David is depicted as very human and very flawed. How can this man be God’s chosen one? What does this tell us about God and about the call of any one of us as children of God and followers of Jesus?
Join us Wednesday evenings, 7:30pm, online and in person, beginning January 21.
