David’s Lamentation | 2 Samuel 1
Recently, we have started a new series called 2 Samuel: Broken and Beloved. We are learning that 2 Samuel is a continuation of 1 Samuel. In this part of the story, the author focuses on David—the man after God’s own heart—as he becomes king. We see his flourishing as he obeys God, we see his decline as he disobeys, we observe the consequences that follow, and God’s mercy throughout. Most of all, we see how David points to a need for a greater king who will bring spiritual healing to His people. The purpose of this series is to learn about God, man, and the hope of the gospel. This week, we are going to study 2 Samuel 1 and observe the time when David learns about Saul’s death. We are going to see his attitude and reaction to the death of his enemy. Join us this week as we learn how to encounter death and pain in our lives.
