With God: In History - David [18]

About this episode

This sermon explores the confrontation between David and Goliath, emphasizing faith and trust in God over human strength.

1 Samuel 17 // Carolyn Poage This sermon covers the iconic confrontation between the young shepherd David and the Philistine giant Goliath. While the Israelite army stood paralyzed by fear in the Valley of Elah, David arrived with a different perspective, seeing the giant not as an impossible obstacle but as a defiance of the living God. We explore the contrast between King Saul’s heavy armor and David’s simple sling, showing how true victory comes from trusting in the name of the lord rather than human might or conventional weaponry.
