Even non-Christians know and understand the reference when you speak of a “David-versus-Goliath” scenario. Of course, that means two opponents who are wildly mismatched in size, skill, strength or some other competitive advantage. This Sunday, we will be studying 1 Samuel 17 together, which details for us the thrilling account of when David accepted the challenge of a freakishly large Philistine man named Goliath to fight as two representative champions of their respective armies. Winner takes all! This incident would propel David into the national spotlight, and set him on a collision course with jealous King Saul.

I’m excited to explore all that God wants to say to us as we study this account together. I hope you’ll listen in.
