    Even when we feel overwhelmed and like the underdog, we can have hope in God's faithfulness and power to bring victory in our lives.

    School, parents, friends, the pandemic - it can all feel like too much sometimes. And trying to grow in our faith and overcome our mistakes can be hard. But the cool thing is, we don't have to do it alone. The Bible is packed with stories of people who faced crazy odds and still came out on top. ...read more

    Finding Suitable Armor: David Versus Goliath

     | 1,455 views

    The story of David and Goliath is well-known. Little David serves as Israel's champion and defeats Goliath with the help of the Lord. But there is even a bigger Goliath that we face who taunts us every day. So we need a better champion. This is Jesus Christ. For Proper 7 After Pentecost, year B

    Finding Suitable Armor: David Versus Goliath 1 Samuel 17:32–39 NKJV Then David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a ...read more

    Who Do You Think You Are, Goliath? (1 Samuel 17: 1-54)

     | 1,246 views

    One of the unfortunate realities about living in this world is the existence of bullies who intimidate and threaten others. The Bible describes one such bully named Goliath. His threats against Israel and God ceased when he encountered David and one smooth stone.

    Bullies have existed in this fallen world ever since Cain killed Abel at the beginning of civilization (Genesis 4:8). However, as the days get darker spiritually and the love of people grows cold (Matthew 24:12; Romans 1:18-32), the problem of bullying is only going to grow like a cancer across ...read more

    Fighting and winning one battle does not define your life, any more than fighting and losing one battle defines who you are.

    God removed David’s fear of the hand of the giant by delivering him from the paw of the lion and paw of the bear. Why Lord would you allow this when others only had to deal with Fox or Wolf? It is because the Lord is preparing you to fight giants that others your age have never fought before.
