    My Three Sons

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 7, 2008
    based on 8 ratings
     | 7,824 views

    Dramatic monologue as if David were speaking: he starved emotionally his son Adonijah, he indulged his son Solomon, and he distanced himself from his son Absalom.

    "Bless the Lord, 0 my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the Lord, 0 my soul, and do not forget all his benefits ... as a father has compassion for his children, so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him." As a father has compassion for his children … When I first ...read more

    Miles of distance and centuries of time separate us from King David. He was a king and we are commoners. Still, despite the distance and the differences we can learn much about being fathers in this present day by looking at this father of long ago.

    David, Pt. 13

    PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE (2 SAMUEL 18:1-17) I love sports. I took to soccer, ping-pong and badminton in my younger days, and basketball and tennis in my 30s. There was no moving object I did not like. By the time I was 35, my knees couldn’t withstand the onslaught anymore. One morning my ...read more

    After David’s son Absalom was killed the people were in need of a king. Many people will cross David’s path as he returns to Jerusalem to be their king. Some of those people he will be able to trust as loyal friends from the past, but others he will not b

    The tragedy of the church today is that we have only proclaimed a partial message. The proclamation of salvation without repentance is a tragedy because it is a mockery to the cross. But the proclamation of salvation without the Holy Spirit is the greates

    King David was one of the most perplexing paradoxes of biblical history. • He has been called the highest star in the Old Testament. • He has provided our most beautiful scriptures in the Psalms. • He was the greatest King of Israel. • His life was such a paragon of all the virtues of leadership ...read more

    Are You Backsliding?

    Contributed by Philip Harrelson on Jan 6, 2012
     | 6,139 views

    A sermon that causes self-examination by asking "are you backsliding?" The sermon focuses on Absalom and Ahithophel.

    2 Samuel 18:18 KJV Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself a pillar, which is in the king's dale: for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance: and he called the pillar after his own name: and it is called unto this day, Absalom's place. I. ...read more

    How excruciating is the heartbreak from the betrayal of a trusted friend! David expresses his anguish as only David can.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

    Part 3 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” as described by Jesus to a crowd of people on a Galilean hillside as he delivered what is more familiarly known as the “Sermon on the Mount.” In this part we examine the beatitude, “Blessed are those who mourn.”

Luke 6:20-49) Part 3 - Beatitudes – those who mourn This is Part 3 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” as described by Jesus to a crowd of people on a Galilean hillside as he delivered what is more ...read more

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 3, 2023
     | 450 views

    King David has been I'm sure on a rollercoaster of different emotions, fear, worry, excitement, victory, and so on. But now, it turns to sorrow. So while David’s troops are celebrating, David is devastated. Joab the leader of David’s troops finds out about this and is not happy.

    Mourning and celebrating, have you ever felt happy, but sad at the same time? Has a moment of excitement or joy suddenly become sad for you? Or perhaps a moment of sorrow turned into a moment of joy? The rebellion of Absalom has been defeated. King David’s troops fought bravely in the battle in ...read more
