It is interesting that David chose five smooth stones from the brook when only one was needed. Why did David do this? There is ...read more

    Like David in the OT, the Christian will face the opposition of Satan, and is called to go out on a limb for God.

    We all know well the story of David and Goliath; it’s one we grew up with from Sunday School. It’s a story which catches a popular vein. It’s the story of the underdog winning, winning against the seeming odds. We probably all have some feeling for the underdog, say in a sporting event, and enjoy ...read more
