The Rise and Fall of the King

12 EPISODES

Saul is dead, David now officially reigns. Long live the King! His ascendency to leader of the entire nation has been a hard road, but culminates in one of the most glorious chapters in all of scripture: when God makes utterly profound promises to David and his descendants. But then it all comes crashing down. How did that happen – and what will it mean for God’s people? The book of 2 Samuel explores the rise and fall of David and helps us long for a better King to come
