2 Samuel
Teacher: Gordy Gates
Listen to the book of 2 Samuel from BibleGateway: ESV, KJV, MSG, NIV
As you read 2 Samuel remember 1 Samuel 13:14 which says that God is seeking out a man after His own heart. How could David have been that man?
Look closely at these stories in 2 Samuel which deal with life and death, guilt and innocence, God's will and human ambition, loyalty and disloyalty to develop principles for living.
