“Listening To Live”

Capital Church Messages

If you’re trying to get on the freeway and you see a sign that says WRONG WAY, you’ve got to turn back immediately. If your labs come back saying your blood pressure is too high, you have to make changes to your daily habits right away. If your bank notifies you that you’ve overdrafted on your account, you’ve got to reconfigure your budget, pronto!
WRONG WAY signs, labs, and overdraft alerts are all forms of feedback. Many of us are good at listening to these kinds of feedback and altering our life accordingly. But when the people around us offer feedback, we often stop listening and start digging in our heals.
This week in The Life and Lyrics of David, we listen as the narrator recounts a story from the end of David’s life where all Israel suffers because David stops listening to those closest to him.
