Friendship

David's life could have stayed ordinary, but the right friends at the right moments changed his story for good. Abigail, meeting David only once, shows the qualities worth screening for in a friend — taking responsibility, reminding us of our calling, and standing between us and sin.

Pastor TJ shows through the story of David, Joab, and Absalom that real friends are strong when we are weak, telling us the truth even when it costs them. When we feel alone in our pain, the Holy Spirit is the friend who is always present, always truthful, and who calls us to bless those who curse us rather than trade our destiny for our temporary feelings.

The friends we let closest to us do not just accompany our story, they help write it. Pastor Linn shows through David's life, David's mighty men, and his own story that being equally yoked with friends who are chasing Jesus determines whether we reach our destination at all, and calls us to choose friendship on purpose rather than let it happen to us.
