Pathfinder Church | October 31, 2021 | Dion Garrett David is mostly known as being “a man after God’s own heart” (1 Sam. 13:14). He was a faithful and conquering king of God’s people. Yet for most of his life, David used violence and murder as his primary method of achieving his goals. He tried to execute Israelites who didn’t support him enough, and murdered a good man to cover up his adultery.
