E36 Psalm 51 - Jesus Still Heals

The Psalms - Week 5

4 years ago

In Psalm 51, as we all know, King David speaks from one of his greatest failures – one which was publicly chronicled for everyone to read. David’s mistakes included adultery, murder, abuse of power, and of course, deception. In this tremendous place of brokenness, David became an everyman. He is speaking as a broken man who longs for redemption.

Can you relate to this place, where you have had to face your brokenness? What do we do?

In Psalm 51, David shared this journey with us, so let’s hear what lessons we can learn from David's confrontation with His brokenness, and how Jesus still heals today.

Launching in 1981 as just 30 people in a living room in Northwest Indiana, Living Stones has grown into a vibrant multi-generational church family. Stones are a product of God the Creator — formed in nature and no two are alike. As we come to faith in Jesus Christ, scripture tells us that we are like living stones in the hand of God and He is using us to build up a spiritual house. Our foundation was built on the work of nurturing and restoring healthy, biblical marriages. In continuing that mission, everything we do here at Living Stones is centered around loving, healing, and equipping individuals and families to grow into a greater likeness of Christ Jesus! By the Holy Spirit, we exist today to Renew Hearts, Restore Homes, Reform Culture and Reach the Nations with the gospel of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 2:4-5 ”As you come to him who is the Living Stone — he was rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious — you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house.” We are a family — misfits, hypocrites, creatives, addicts, reformers, over-churched, unchurched, wanderers — each of us a stone, uniquely crafted by the hand of God, made alive through Jesus, and now living by the power of the Holy Spirit. Together, we are Living Stones.
