Summary

"It's a story that makes grace come alive. In this story, kindness means more than just being nice to someone" Christianity made kindness notorious for its lethal power. ("Kill 'em with kindness" came from Christ long before Selena made it a hit song.) But kindness should also be recognized for its redemptive power as well. God's grace elevates kindness from "just being nice" to becoming alive. In this episode, https://www.thecrossingchurch.com/staff/keith-simon/ (Keith) explains how David's kindness in the Old Testament foreshadows God's grace in the New Testament. Hear how David exemplifies five tenants of God's grace as we continue our series of https://www.thecrossingchurch.com/podcast-series/david-in-22-stories/ (David in 22).

0:00.0	Welcome to Tim Minut Bible Talks, where we connect the Bible to your life and the time it takes to get to work.
0:10.0	I'm Keith Simon.
0:11.0	And I'm Patrick Miller. Right now we're working through the story of David's life in first and second Samuel.
0:18.0	It's possible whether or not you follow baseball you know a guy named Cal Ripkin Jr. If you follow baseball then you for sure
0:25.8	know him. He's the Hall of Fame shortstop played 21 years for the Baltimore Orioles
0:30.9	and what he is mainly known for is his streak of most consecutive games played.

1:44.6	No, they are on a baseball card that's worth $1,200 because they're attached to Cal Ripkin Jr.
1:53.0	Today we're going to talk about that grace through the life of a person who has a name that is incredibly difficult for me to pronounce.
