Bern Leckie and Owen Lynch share thoughts and feelings about 1 Samuel chapter 21 through to 2 Samuel chapter 10.
The rise of King David is inspiring, like a hero story, although with some tragic twists to come. David’s initial struggles don’t just show his character as he hopes and trusts in God, but he meets creatively with God and ends up expressing all kinds of relatable conflict through the poetry and songs of the Psalms.
This made Bern and Owen reflect on their chances to be creative, what attracted them to Vineyard as a church movement, and how creativity with God is working out for them. It’s not all about music and creative arts, but the creativity needed to build relationships and be parents. Can we learn about doing this well through David’s vulnerability and honesty, as well as his creative expressions of joy, hope, pain and longing in life?
David was blessed by God with success and, at the peak of his achievements, he offered to build God a house. In one of the Bible’s most significant twists, God then offered to build David a house - not a temple, but a family line which would be the backbone of the Jewish nation, but also lead to a saviour and fulfilment of God’s promise to make his people a light to the world.
The next part of our boxset will look at the rest of 2 Samuel as well as Psalms 42 to 51. Listen along at your own pace at severnvineyard.org/bible.
