This morning we continued our look at 1Kings and the life of Solomon. We had some great discussion and missed those of you who couldn't be there this morning.
The first chapter is talking about the events leading up to Solomon being named as king. This morning we discussed the prohet Nathan and his role in not only David's life but also in getting Solomon on the throne of Isreal.
Nathan was a trusted advisor to David so why did he have Bathsheba approach David first with the news about Adonijah? Why did Nathan use questions to inform David of Adonijah's actions to take the throne?
As we looked at our own lives we talked about the value of having a Nathan in our lives - someone we trust and will be compelely honest with us. We also talked about how we can play that role in someone elses life - such as our kids. What does that look like as they get older?
Do you have a Nathan in your life? Are you a Nathan for someone else? How do we make that happen?
Continue your reading in 1Kings 1-11. (2 Chronicles 1-9 are parallel passages about Solomon's life.)
I hope to see you next Wednesday at Panera Bread at 6:30am.
Blessings,
Roger
