Death by Church Plant

This is the story of a collection of people who follow Jesus. We live in Littleton. We encounter people in the name of Jesus, we allow Jesus to turn us into disciples, we gather often, and we equip people to love and serve other people better.

SERMON - I SAMUEL 25

Events in I Samuel 25

1.     David looses his cool

2.     Abigail stands in the gap

3.     David turns around

4.     Nabal dies

5.     David marries Abigail

Questions

1.     What is the connection between the last story and this one?

2.     Why is David so mad?

3.     The servants know trouble is coming, who do they turn to?

4.     Is Abigail showing proper respect to her husband?  Submissive?

Lessons

Just like mom said: "Sometimes you got to be the bigger man"

2.      THANKFULLY - God will protect us from ourselves

3.     Sometimes when we come off of a big victory, we slip into temptation – beware

4.     The trap of offense will lead to needless destruction

5.     We overcome offense by trusting God to one day make all things right

6.     We have to be careful not to confuse offense for righteous indignation
