The Story Of Us – Week 11 | David

Success finally arrives: rest, luxury and influence collide with a simple impulse to "do something for God." This episode names that sharp tension—when good intentions meet proud ambition. Using King David’s desire to build God a temple, the sermon wrestles with how sincere motives can slip into self-serving religion, how power can silence consent, and why “doing” for God sometimes masks a deeper hunger to be the one in charge. The message turns the spotlight from monuments to identity: God isn’t asking for nicer real estate; God is building a people. You’ll hear why the divine plan interrupts human plans, how grace reshapes a leader who learns to sit in God’s presence, and what it looks like to be a person “after God’s own heart” when that means receiving rather than proving. Stay for the surprising invitation that stillness before God can be the most faithful thing we do.
