Mosaic worship, structured by the Law, can feel radically different to David's, with his Psalms and dancing, and the worship we recognise from the early church to today. This study strengthens our understanding of how Scripture weaves the story of worship together, deepening our revelation of how wondrous it truly is. This study is meaty, so get ready to engage your brain, open your heart, and leave changed, with a deeper understanding of the price of presence and the wonder of worship.

Ultimately, each theme will enable us to understand Jesus and why He came.

2 Samuel depicts the ascension and reign of King David following the death of Saul and Jonathan.

Despite David's wickedness, God ultimately fulfills his promises to David through the person and work of Jesus Christ.
