Episode 100: As David looks around at his luxurious new home, he is struck by the sudden urge to build a better home for God. So he holds counsel with Nathan the Prophet and Nathan encourages him and prays for him. That night, Nathan receives a promise from God for David, a promise that God will build up the household of David. David exemplified what it meant for a leader to follow God. He worshiped God both in battle and in praise and he taught the nation to do the same.
