Hidden Houses 4
from The Table Dallas Hosted by David Wahlstedt
Today we step directly into an intense political thriller that would be the envy of Tom Clancy, Vince Flynn, and John le Carre. In 2 Samuel 15, King David is fleeing for his life after his son, Absalom, launched a sudden rebellion in an attempt to steal the throne. Absalom has taken over the palace, but to completely secure his power, he needs to eliminate his father.

But as Thomas a Kempis famously wrote in The Imitation of Christ, “Man proposes, but God disposes.”
