2 Samuel 11:1-12:31 // The Fall of God's KingSeries: 1-2 Samuel: A King After God's Own HeartPreacher: Tim ScoularSunday MorningDate: 6th April 2025Passage: 2 Samuel 11:1-12:31-------------------Our reading and sermon today are on the story of David and Bathsheba. It is an episode that many of us will be familiar with. However, it raises some hard issues about abuses of power, and particularly the kind of harm that can be done to women by men. We know that this is a topic that affects many of our church family, whether directly, or people who are close to us. If that's you, we want you to know that you are loved and seen by your Heavenly Father, who hates evil and injustice. Pastoral support and prayer is available - whether you'd like to talk to someone today or in the future. You can get in touch with the staff team, or we'd also encourage you to talk and pray with a trusted Christian friend.
