2 SAMUEL
While 1 Samuel focused on Saul’s reign as king, 2 Samuel focuses on David’s reign as king. As we read through this book, we will learn much about David and why God said he was a man after His own heart.
Long after David’s death, God responded to events in the lives of people in light of His love for David. In this chapter, we have an example of what made him so great. His response to the death of Saul was amazing considering the depth of Saul’s hatred toward David and how wickedly he had been treated by Saul.
Yet, when Saul died, David and his men mourned for him. David even wrote a song in honor of Saul and ordered that all the men of Judah be taught it. He refused to become bitter or hostile toward him. He not only felt this way personally, but was able to help his men develop these same qualities.

GROW SELF-FEEDERS.
Rather than presenting preset conclusions, the inductive study method of OTD walks the user through a process of discovery, unlocking the Word by training them through repetition and modeling, how to ask good questions. Users are set free from dependence on media and other inputs that externally define for them what life is about and who God is. The Word becomes a real conversation with God.
IT'S A TOOL.
OTD is a daily devotional tool available in monthly booklet format designed to build the skill and discipline of effective daily Bible study, and is authored by Dwight Peterson. Each month includes both prayer list and commitment pages designed to add context to personal Bible study and to facilitate small group accountability.
RELEVANT AND FLEXIBLE.
OnTrack focuses on skill development, engaging 4 Levels of user skill in one tool.
