Difficult Relationships

Pastor Bill Bush · May 22, 2023

Drawing from 2 Samuel 9, Pastor Bill shows that biblical kindness — the Hebrew word chesed — is far more than being cordial or polite. It is an active, covenant-rooted pursuit of mercy and provision of grace toward people who cannot repay us and may not deserve it. Just as David sought out Mephibosheth to bless him for Jonathan's sake, God seeks us out in our brokenness and seats us at His table because of Jesus. When we regularly experience that kindness at the Lord's table, we are empowered to express it in our most difficult relationships.
