  5. A House with a Name

    Talkin’ with God about Kings and Kingdoms 1Kings 5-7Details about the temple being built appear to us ‘ad nauseam’. But this is the reality God gives us and an important piece contemporary with its own times. God permits Solomon to build a temple, but warns what this temple should be. God’s…

  8. Impotence, Vitality and Succession

    Talkin’ with God about Kings and Kingdoms 1Kings 1-2One last look at David. He is old, cold and impotent - even with the most beautiful girl in the land spooning with him at night.

  12. The Sins Of The Father

    Talkin’ with God about Kings and Kingdoms2Samuel 14-15David’s ‘sexcapades’ continue to roll out consequences, just like God said.

    Talkin’ with God about Kings and Kingdoms2Samuel 11-13All the good vibrations of Israel becoming a nation among nations, to bring the nations to God and to bring God’s compassion to the down and outs goes out the window.
