Reconciliation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pastor J. S. Melvin takes us to 2 Samuel 14 to explore the difference between coming home and being truly restored.

Read excerpt
This week Pastor Melvin turns to one of the darkest passages of scripture: 2 Samuel 13, where lust, abuse, silence, revenge, and grief expose the devastating reach of unaddressed sin.

When Conflict Finds You (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pastor J. S. Melvin takes us to 2 Samuel 10, where David’s act of kindness unexpectedly leads to humiliation, conflict, and war. As we walk through Joab’s response to being surrounded, we are encouraged to face life’s battles with courage, support one another, do what faithfulness requires, and trust God with the outcome we cannot control.
