You Can’t Wait for Others to Do the Right Thing — Courageous Crisis Intervention from Abigail
In 1 Samuel 25, Abigail finds herself in a dangerous crisis: her husband Nabal’s arrogance has provoked David to bring armed retaliation against their household. While others freeze, excuse, or ignore the threat, Abigail acts swiftly and wisely—intervening with humility, generosity, and discernment to prevent bloodshed.

The Cost of Doing Nothing —Crisis Management Lessons from David & Absalom
In 2 Samuel, King David faces a growing crisis with his son Absalom—one that begins with injustice, festers through silence, and escalates into betrayal, rebellion, and national upheaval. David’s choice to remain passive in the face of wrongdoing and relational breakdown offers a sobering leadership lesson: in times of crisis, inaction is itself a decision—with consequences.

When “What’s Right for Me” Isn’t Right for Us — Confronting Subjective Ethics in the Church
In Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians, we see a church rich in spiritual gifts but fractured by divisions, pride, and moral compromise. One of the underlying issues was subjective ethics—each person deciding right and wrong by personal preference or cultural convenience rather than by God’s truth.
This workshop explores how “everyone doing what is right in their own eyes” (Judges 21:25) erodes unity, distorts the gospel, and weakens the witness of Christ’s body. Using 1 Corinthians as our guide, we’ll uncover how the early church’s moral confusion mirrors challenges in today’s congregations—and how to address them with grace and truth.
