In this episode of No Dusty Bibles, we close out the book of 1 Chronicles with David’s final act of leadership and prayer in chapter 29. We reflect on his example of joyful generosity, the people’s willing hearts, and God’s eternal greatness. We’ll also take a step back to summarize the big picture of 1 Chronicles—God’s faithfulness, His promises, and the call for His people to live lives of worship.
