Synopsis: We are told to confess, but seldom talk about it. Our confession often reveals how we think of and deal with our sin before God. In this lesson we will learn from King Saul and King David’s confession of sin some things that we must not do and must do when we confess our sins.

“Let all that you do be done with love.”
