    When God looks at you He does not see your height or weight or any warts or blemishes. God sees your heart and He sees you for your heart. How pure is your heart before God? This is the story of the anointing of David, the king of Israel. The setting begins with King Saul. Saul took leadership ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,866 views

    From the story of Samuel anointing David as future king, we learn to obey God (which impacts others), to never stop learning, and to cultivate character. (Used as Father's Day sermon.)

    1 Samuel 15:34 - 1 Samuel 16:13 Lessons from the Father of a Nation This Father’s Day I thought it would be interesting to learn from the Father of a nation.
