The Rev. Christopher Amen, pastor of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Pipestone, MN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study 2 Samuel 5.

David finally unites all Israel under his rule and he captures Jerusalem from the Jebusites and makes it his own city. He receives support from a foreign king and expands his family and wealth. He faces the Philistines, his former allies, and defeats them with God’s help. He is the king that God chose and blessed. But will he remain faithful to God?

2 Samuel tells how David becomes the king of Israel and faces both success and failure. It shows YHWH's faithfulness to His promise and David’s need for His mercy. Through this book, God reveals David in times of both strength and weakness, but nevertheless as a man after God’s heart.
