The Friction of Friendship | April 27, 2025

First Presbyterian Church of Orlando Season 5 Episode 17

Rev. Tanner Fox | 2 Samuel 12:1-7

The story of 2 Samuel 11-12 eventually produced one of the most well known Psalms in the worship book of God’s people, Psalm 51. The Psalm is a picture of the humiliation of the human soul, leading to the humility of human confession, leading to the healing of God’s grace. A transformational process we all need to know but rarely want to experience. What I find beautiful about this story is the way in which God uses a good friend to spark the match that leads to the blazing fire of repentance in the life of King David.
