The tragic story of King David draws to a close this week as the lectionary reading describes David receiving the news of the death of his son Absalom. Pastor Nancy retells the story of their estrangement and invites us to imagine a different outcome. Listen in as she asks, "what if?" The gospel story gives us the chance to break the cycles of violence and retribution and to practice the power of our moral imaginations to make a way of peace where there was once no way.
