Goodness Is Greater Than Bitterness | Jon Bell | Christian Sermons

Описание: What happens when you lose everything? In week two of our Rise and Fall series, we look at the life of David in 1 Samuel 30. After a devastating raid on Ziklag, David and his men find themselves at a crossroads of faith and exhaustion.

When the world takes from us, our natural human instinct is toward bitterness, greed, and "keeping score." But David shows us a different way—the way of the Kingdom. Join us as we explore why Goodness is greater than Bitterness and how radical generosity can transform our lives.

In this message, we discuss:
The Power of Inquiry: Why asking God questions (Shaal) keeps us humble and dependent rather than fearful.

Faith + Action: How David trusted God’s sovereignty while boldly pursuing the rescue mission.

The Egyptian Slave: Lessons on showing care before questioning and finding heroes in unlikely places.

The 200 vs. the 400: Why we should lead with "Generous Assumptions" instead of "Negative Conclusions" when others are exhausted.

The Gospel Connection: How David’s decision to share the plunder with the weary foreshadows Jesus, who fought the battle we couldn't fight and gave us an inheritance we didn't earn.

"No, my brothers, you must not do that with what the Lord has given us... All will share alike." — 1 Samuel 30:23-24
