Continuing our journey with the kings of Israel last week, Han gave us a bigger picture view of how everyone we have been talking about fits together. And then focused on Solomon, the last of the kings of a united Israel. We talked about his most important choice - the one all of us know Solomon for - and what it meant for him in his life. Have a listen to find out what we can learn.

Solomon's choice - Han

Hello all! Our sincerest apologies, due to problems with the sound quality, we won't be able to share Nic's teaching of 5 August about King David and Psalm 51. If you were there - consider yourself lucky!

“It is good to continue believing that everything is more miracu­lous than one can comprehend, for this is truth; it is good to remain sensitive and humble and tender of heart, even good to be learned in the things that are hidden from the wise and intel­lectual ones of the world but are revealed, as if by nature, to the poor and simple, to women and little children. For what can one learn that is better than what God has given by nature to every human soul - which is living and loving, hoping and believing, in the depth of every soul...Nothing less than the infinite and the miraculous is necessary, and man does well not to be contented with anything less, and not to feel at home as long as he has not acquired it...Happy is [the one] who has faith in God for in the end [such a one] will overcome all the difficulties of life, albeit not without trouble and sorrow." - Vincent van Gogh

Continuing with our series on the kings of Israel, and what we can learn from their lives, we take a bird's-eye view of that part of the history of Israel, and we see a pattern emerge. Have a listen, lest we keep on repeating that pattern...
