David brought the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem with joyful celebration — dancing before God with everything he had.
David wanted the Ark in his new capital. The first attempt ended in tragedy when Uzzah touched the Ark to steady it and was struck dead, causing David to leave it at Obed-Edom's house for three months. The second attempt was a massive celebration. David danced before the Lord with all his might, wearing a simple linen garment. His wife Michal watched from a window and despised him for it, but David said he would become even more undignified in worship.
2 Samuel
When the King Danced Like Nobody Was Watching

1 Chronicles
The Day the Celebration Stopped

1 Chronicles
When You Get a Second Chance to Do It Right
David gets a do-over on bringing the ark to Jerusalem — and this time he does it exactly the way God asked. What follows is worship preparation laid out in painstaking detail, complete with a full orchestra, a dancing king, and one very unimpressed wife watching from a window.
1 Chronicles
The Day the Music Started
David brings the ark of God into Jerusalem, throws a celebration for the entire nation, and commissions Israel's first worship team. Then he writes a song that traces God's faithfulness from Abraham all the way to the present — and it's still worth reading today.
