15. The Legacy of the Shepherd King - Rich Bowpitt

Oasis Church Birmingham: Talks

What does a good leader look like? This year, Oasis is exploring the life of King David - a leader in the Bible who was known as "a man after God's own heart". Ultimately, David's story is one which shows us that God is overflowing with kindness and generosity, that human frailty can’t derail his plans and his purposes, and that the one David’s life is pointing to even in his flaws and failures, the true King, Jesus, really is enough. This week, in the final part of the series, Rich explores David's final words. They're a mixed bag - reflecting the legacy of both restlessless and rest to which his life leads. In them though, is wisdom for us too in all the different endings within our own lives - how looking to the true Shepherd King, Jesus, helps us to build a legacy of rest into every area of our lives.
