RESPONSIBILITY: IF YOU WONT CARRY THE BALL, YOU CANT LEAD THE TEAM... David suffers the first of several horrible consequences of his sin with Bathsheba shortly after some military conquests. Davids son, Amnon, rapes his half sister, Tamar: When David hears about it, he dose nothing- surprising and upsetting Davids son, Absalom. After two years, Absalom murders Amnon. The whole mess plays out almost like soap opera. By this point, Davids leadership has shrunk to a mere shadow of its former self. Note the change in Davids leadership: 1. He no longer works proactively, but passively interacts with those closest to him. 2. He no longer expresses joy, but is full of grief and mourning. 3. He no longer acts on his convictions, but buys into rationalizations about his loss. 4. he no longer solves problems, but licks his wounds. 5. He no longer pursues his desires, but remains paralyzed regarding Absalom.
