Bible Passages: 2 Samuel 12:1-9, Psalm 51

Summary

This week, we are going to talk about one of the most famous and infamous stories of the Old Testament. David, the King of Israel, commits a horrible series of crimes and then gets called to account by the prophet Nathan. You might think these events are separated from us by time and space, but they have a lot to teach us about how we are and how we fall into traps of our own making.
