Abigail Made Simple

Abigail -- wisdom under pressure: the swift peacemaker who turned aside David's wrath and married the future king (1 Samuel 25:23-35).

Abigail Made Simple is a Bible-first walk through 1 Samuel 25: the foolish husband Nabal, the servant's urgent warning, the haste that saved a household, the intercession spoken at David's feet, the prophecy of the sure house, the soul bound in the bundle of life, the foresight that kept a king's hands clean, the blessing of wise advice, the Lord's own vindication, and the bride brought into the house of the king.

Explicitly Trinitarian: God the Father who rules the kingdoms of men and pleads the cause of His servants; Jesus Christ -- Son of God and Son of Man, Lord and Savior, the greater David and the greater Abigail, the one Mediator who said "upon me" with His life; and the Holy Spirit, who gave Abigail her good understanding and who alone breaks every stronghold of folly and fury. Every prayer is to the Father, through Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit.

Read one chapter a day. Come honest. Move swiftly. Stand in the gap.
