Kingdoms aren’t built to last. The Mongol Empire. The Qing Dynasty. The Roman Empire. No matter how great the nation or how vast the empire, human kingdoms seem to have an expiration date. Eventually, the greatness of a nation fails and her strength falters. Whether from external forces or internal rot, kingdoms collapse. The history of the world is littered with the ruins of great empires that rose and fell in the blink of an eye.

Kings aren’t built to last. They pass away. Their stories and legacies pass into legend. They may get monuments and memorials, but their reign and rule has ended. They have no more power. No more influence. Nothing left to give their subjects. As David approached the end of his life, he looked back on a mixed legacy. While he had sowed some of the seeds that would lead to Israel’s destruction, God promised that a Son from his lineage would one day lead to all Israel’s salvation. In his death, David would remind us of our need for a never-ending Kingdom led by a never-ending King!

Join us for "The Once and Future King" - a six-week study on the life of King David. Over the course of this study, we'll talk about this king "after God's own heart" and how his life points us towards the One King who will never fail. The study guide is available as an ebook on our channel.
