THE STORY
King David, once the undisputed ruler of Israel (1010- 970 BCE), is a prisoner of his own stubbornness.
It's up to The Prophet Nathan to help King David accept change. With a heavy heart, Nathan delivers devastating news: David will not build the first temple of Israel that he has long envisioned as a wonder of architecture and his life's crowning achievement.
That’s not all. Citizens are discussing removing David from the throne. A movement is gaining momentum, and one of his sons is at the center of it.
David's world is shattered. Overwhelmed by despair, he lashes out at Nathan with a fury that sweeps through the court. Nathan remains steady, guiding David with a cast of unexpected visitors from the past and future. Together, Nathan’s “agents of change” confirm the certainty of David’s current situation and God’s promise for the future. They convince him that his legacy is Something Greater than even the King could imagine.
These encounters, some humorous and others heartbreaking, provide valuable lessons for us all, wherever we are in life. The insights remind us there is hope in times of change when “we engage life where it is and not where we wish it were.”¹
