Recap of 4/9/06
1. Nathan is a profile in both loyalty and leadership:
-Nathan steps into the void of leadership left by David's feeble condition and advanced years -David was inattentive and disconnected at this important juncture in Israel 's history.
-God would use Nathan and Bathsheba to rouse David to action and to see that His will be accomplished
-Nathan was loyal to David but more importantly he was loyal to God.
-Nathan was zealous to see that God's will prevail despite Adonijah's scheming
2. "The overriding need of the church today is for a leadership that is spiritual and sacrificial, that is authoritative, though not authoritarian."
J. Oswald Sanders in Spiritual Leadership.
