Oasis Church Birmingham: Talks

What does a good leader look like? This year, Oasis is exploring the life of King David - a leader in the Bible who was known as "a man after God's own heart". Ultimately, David's story is one which shows us that God is overflowing with kindness and generosity, that human frailty can’t derail his plans and his purposes, and that the one David’s life is pointing to even in his flaws and failures, the true King, Jesus, really is enough. This week, Mike takes us through the story of David hearing about the death of Saul, posing the question for each of us "What are you leaning on?" Together, we unpack how Saul died as he lived, leaning on his spear, whilst David leans on God's promises and the community of faith, and what we can learn from these two men about where we too need to be placing our hope.
