Passage Lesson 11/10/2013

Hi Passage Staff,

Here was my lesson handout from last Sunday’s, 11/10/2013, lesson.  I think I wanted to get the students to connect and relate to the feeling of “revenge” that David was going through.  And how easily he could have taken it.  Yet, he realized the guilt of hurting the Lord’s anointed.  Let me know which questions in the group brought out good discussion and which didn’t seem to add much value to the lesson.

Thanks for your feedback.

This Sunday’s lesson will be about “Anger”.  Please pray for the lesson.
