As we step into the tragic stories of Amnon, Tamar, and Absalom, scenes of depravity and revenge take the stage. Rape, murder, betrayal, and assassination are front and center, but can God redeem even this? What is God's heart for sinners? Even in the midst of King David's failures as a father, in 2 Samuel 13 we see the light of the gospel shining through the pages of Scripture. Even at our worst, God's heart longs for His people.
