About this episode
This episode discusses God's choice of an overlooked shepherd boy as Israel's next king and how it reflects His ability to see beyond outward appearances.
When God sends Samuel to anoint Israel's next king, He passes over the impressive and the expected to choose an overlooked shepherd boy. This Sunday we'll meet the God who sees—not just your outward appearance, but your heart—and discover that His choice of the least likely king in 1 Samuel 16 points us to the reality that He has chosen you too.
