226: Grief - Lessons from the Life of David

Biblical Counseling Podcast

In Chapter one of II Samuel we find David receiving word of the death of his dear friend Jonathan, and of King Saul, who he admired so greatly.

• In observing how David deals with his grief, there are some important lessons we can learn.

• Sooner or later every one of us will experience the grief and sorrow of having lost someone that we loved very dearly.

I learned these lessons from Pastor Chuck Smith, who is now in heaven.
