David's Dysfunctional Family
Sean and Kate discuss the terrible dysfunction among David's kids and how dark we can actually go as people. BUT God's grace is always stronger and goes to the absolute depths of our brokenness, to the point of death to bring new life and set us free.

David and Bathsheba and God's Work of Redemption
No one likes to be confronted with our sin, but God brings it into the light to actually deal with it...to bring new life. We see him preach his two words of law and gospel to David through the prophet Nathan and bring redemption out of the destruction of David's sin.

A Savior for When We're Stuck
Is there any hope for us when we're stuck? Sean and Kate continue to look at David's first wife, Michal, who was stuck in her resentments and bitterness as a result of the hurts and traumas she had suffered. Her story surprisingly gives us hope because she is just the kind of person Jesus came for.
