Ancient Words, Present Hope - David's Greater Son

Do you know the name Errol Musk? He was an electrical and mechanical engineer from South Africa. He got involved in politics, opposing the Apartheid laws. You probably don’t know much about him, but you do know his greater son, Elon Musk. Elon has changed the world with the Tesla company, SpaceX, and recently the purchase of Twitter, now “X”. 

We find a similar dynamic in the Old Testament with King David. We know the name and we know much of his story, but it’s his descendent who would eclipse him. The New Testament writers, especially the gospel authors, emphasize Jesus’ connection to David, but always as his greater son. This Sunday, we’ll explore Jesus’ connection with King David and some of the ways this frames our understanding of Him. Join us as we worship the Lord.
