Sermons About Bathsheba
A Contrite Heart
In 2 Samuel 11 and 12, King David stumbles into an immense moral failure when he commits adultery with Bathsheba and murders her husband Uriah to cover it up. In Psalm 51 we learn how David can still be called a "man after God's own heart" and how we can share in the forgiveness that David receives - by embracing Jesus as the truer and better King.

A Big Mess
Only the Lord can be in the business of bringing good out of evil, blessing generation after generation. The actions of David and his pursuit of Bathsheba and all the events that surrounded this big mess are one of the key stories of redemption in Scripture. Sometimes the enemy tricks us into thinking that the pain and mess of our lives are beyond repair - beyond help. We see ourselves as a mess, chaotic and without beauty. But that's not the way God sees us. In His mercy, His agenda is one of redemption and restoration - no matter who we are. He is the star breathing God, but He is also the author and artist of our lives, and the minute not only matters to Him - from the smallest cell to the largest galaxies - He cares for it all. Key Passage: Psalm 51

From Repentance to Rejoicing
The Bible shows us that even a great man like David the King is fundamentally flawed and capable of the deepest sin. Not only that, but each of us are sinners in need of a Savior. This is why we need repentance. It’s the first step to understanding anything about God’s grace or His healing power in our lives.

Confession: Good for the Soul, Part I: Fault before God
How much do we truly understand our own sin? In this sermon series, we want to look at the power of confessing our sins--and receiving forgivenes--from a pastor or a fellow Christian. But before we can get to confession, we must first come to a fuller understanding of our own sin and sinfulness.
