Gratitude is the beginning of contentment and a barrier to envy. "The Gratitude Shift - Embracing Six Gifts You Already Have" takes us on a journey of reflection, leading to a fresh new perspective to build gratitude in our hearts. This uplifting devotional encourages consistent gratitude expression to God and will help to cultivate a thankful heart for some remarkable gifts He has already given all of us.

2 Samuel depicts the ascension and reign of King David following the death of Saul and Jonathan. David united the kingdom, established Jerusalem as the capital city, and extended the territory of Israel. At the crescendo of the book, God promises David that "your throne shall be established forever" (2 Samuel 7:16). Despite David's wickedness, God ultimately fulfills his promises to David through the person and work of Jesus Christ.

By the end of this study, we pray that you will know God’s voice better, that you will know when and how he speaks, and feel compelled to obey. As we study Scripture, we will discover that God’s plan cannot be thwarted regardless of who is in power. The point of the original monarchy found in 1 and 2 Samuel, illustrates that from the beginning.

Books 1 & 2 Samuel tell the stories of three heroes God used to establish a kingdom for His people: Samuel, the revered last judge; Saul, the impressive first king of Israel; and David, the flawed poet-warrior. Beyond the page-turning adventures, battles, and political gamesmanship lies the story of a greater King—the true and forever reigning son of David, Jesus. Join us as we start these stories.
