The Mountain E6 — In 2 Samuel, David is crowned king of a unified Israel, and after choosing Jerusalem as his capital city, he brings the ark of the covenant to Mount Zion. It seems like things are going great—a priestly king has unified the tribes and all of Israel’s enemies are subdued! But it doesn’t last. After committing adultery and murder, David also foolishly calls for a census of his army (which according to the Law, no Israelite leader was supposed to do). And things just get worse. In this episode, Jon and Tim discuss the failures of David and how his story highlights the need for a faithful intercessor who will surrender his life on the mountain for the good of the people.<a href="http://bibleproject.com">View more resources on our website →</a>Timestamps <ul><li>Chapter 1: David Establishes His Capital on Mount Zion (0:00-18:31)</li><li>Chapter 2: David Fails by Calling for a Census 18:31-35:13)</li><li>Chapter 3: Intercession on the Future Temple Mount (35:13-51:20)</li></ul>Referenced Resources<ul><li><a href="https://a.co/d/58VttBh">1 and 2 Chronicles, Volume 1: 1 Chronicles 1-2 and Chronicles 9: Israel's Place Among Nations</a> by William Johnstone</li><li>Check out <a href="https://bibleproject.com/tim-mackie/">Tim’s library here.</a></li><li>You can experience our entire library of resources in the BibleProject app, available for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bibleproject">Android</a> and <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bibleproject/id1523687027">iOS</a>.</li></ul>Show Music<ul><li>“Change of Pace” by UpsiDown</li><li>“Piano Room” by Matthew Halbert-Howen</li><li>BibleProject theme song by TENTS </li></ul>Show CreditsProduction of today's episode is by Lindsey Ponder, producer, and Cooper Peltz, managing producer.
