The story of a sinner and yet a “man after God’s own heart,” whom God never stopped loving.
We remember David as the great king of Israel, great poet, great warrior, ancestor of Jesus Christ – and “a man after God’s own heart.” We don’t often remember that he was also an adulterer and scheming murderer – crimes that would put him in prison for life today and label him forever as a felon. It was only through God’s love, forgiveness, and faithfulness to David that he received victory over his great sin. This is a message that resonates with the men and women prisoners we serve!
