13. The House of God - Rich Bowpitt

Oasis Church Birmingham: Talks

What does a good leader look like? This year, Oasis is exploring the life of King David - a leader in the Bible who was known as "a man after God's own heart". Ultimately, David's story is one which shows us that God is overflowing with kindness and generosity, that human frailty can’t derail his plans and his purposes, and that the one David’s life is pointing to even in his flaws and failures, the true King, Jesus, really is enough. This week, Rich looks at David's desire to build a house for God, and God's word to David in response; promising to build him a house which lasts for eternity. Together, we explore how easy it is for our desire to "do great things for God", to overtake and undermine the heart of the gospel, which is that God has done, is doing, and will do great things for us.
