David And Goliath Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

We live in an infinitely more secure and safe environment than our ancestors did. Even though we live, in many ways, in the safest possible world that’s ever existed, all indications are we are still quite anxious and fearful. In fact, we are more anxious; we are more fraught with fears.

We’re doing a short series on courage, entitled Fearless: Possessing a Lionhearted Righteousness. It’s based off of Proverbs 28:1: “The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion” (Proverbs 28:1). Open your Bible to 1 Samuel 17 and bookmark Genesis 12.

David, The Protector

Contributed by Dove Inspirations on Nov 8, 2021

King David protected and went after what was under his care when he was a shepherd. A character trait to be emulated.

David, The Soldier Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Nov 11, 2020

After Samuel had anointed him (to be the future king), David had served Saul in a number ...read more
