A Great King Brings Great Hope

In this sermon, Pastor Taylor explores 2 Samuel 5:6-25, focusing on the early reign of King David and his conquests, highlighting how David's actions brought hope and prosperity to Israel. Pastor Taylor draws parallels between David and Jesus Christ, asserting that while David was a great king, Jesus is a far greater King who brings true and eternal hope.
