This coming Tuesday will be the last session of the Bible study, “Anointed, Transformed, Redeemed” (a 6 week study on the life of David) that I’ve been a part of. We’re a tiny little group. We started with 5 of us and now we have just 4 because one of the women moved. The small size has lent itself to making our times more cozy and open. There is time for everyone to talk about what they are learning and going through. I’ve really enjoyed it.
My friend, Catherine, and I have been leading it together. I’ve never led a study before where I did anything more than facilitate. In this one, I actually do some teaching which is frightening and fun at the same time. The story of David’s life is so full. The problem has never been to find something to discuss. The challenge is choosing one area on which to focus.
This week’s theme is “grace”- the “Redeemed” part of this study. Isn’t it confusing and encouraging that David would be called “a man after God’s own heart” when he made a good number of really bad decisions? Tonight, I’m going to spend some time thinking and studying what was it about David that made that statement true.
I’d love to hear your thoughts!
