Bible in a Year (The Story) Podcast
Religion & Spirituality
Summary. In this story we might find ourselves both uncomfortable with the egregiousness of David’s moral defection and at the same time the depths of God’s grace. Every human king, even David, is not capable of fulfilling a role only ever meant for the Lord, Jesus Christ. Even David, did what Eve and Adam did in Genesis. They saw. They wanted. They took. The details of this story are important and often misunderstood. It’s worth a close look, a self-reflection, and a careful consideration for how we talk about it with others.
