A monthly update and reminder of the happenings, goings-on, events, activities, and everything else related to the PBC Student Ministry!
A PUBLICATION OF THE PARKWAY STUDENT MINISTRYThe purpose of the Parkway Student Ministry is to teach young people to GROW in their relationship with God, FELLOWSHIP with other teens, REACH OUT to their peers, and SERVE others.
This month, and next, with only a few
weeks left of 2010 (hard to believe!) we will be
starting a new Wednesday night bible study
titled ‘Kings’. We will spend 5 weeks looking at
the lives and stories of some of the Kings found
in the Old Testament. Our study will focus
mostly on King David and will use the recent TV
series ‘Kings’ as a resource.
David is one of the most recognizable
figures in the Old Testament, and there’s very
little wonder as to why: shepherd turned giant-
killing hero, turned King, and labeled “the man
after God’s own heart.” While David’s story
seems too good to be true, part of what makes
David’s story so interesting is not his successes,
but his failures. David was human, and like
many of us succumbed to temptation; he gave
in to the allure of power, was corrupted by
material gains, committed adultery, and even
had a man killed. Despite all his shortcomings,
David still found himself on his face before God,
repenting and once again, seeking God’s heart,
finding that forgiveness and grace he so longed
for.
We can learn a lot from figures like David.
How often do we find ourselves giving in to the
temptations around us; being overly interested
in power, wealth, and material gain? Like David,
we also find ourselves time and again humbled
before God, seeking to follow God’s heart,
repenting, and finding that forgiveness. Perhaps
we shouldn’t aim to BE LIKE David, but we can
certainly LEARN FROM him.
Peace,
! ! Ryan1 Samuel 16:13 - Then Samuel took
the horn of oil, and anointed him...and the spirit of the Lord came mightily upon David from that day forward.
