July 28th – “Confession”
2 Samuel 11:1-15
For many, this is one of the most uncomfortable texts in the Bible. How do we reconcile that David, the man after God’s own heart, and David, the sinner, are the same person? In reality, David is not a singular case of particularly terrible sin. Sin is sin. It just so happens that David’s sins were written down and laid bare for all of us to read. So, we want to invite you not to approach this service with a particularly somber tone or to weigh down the congregation with the terribleness of human sin. Rather, we invite you to approach David’s sin as an invitation to lay our individual and communal sins bare before God
