1 Samuel 16:14 - 17:58 | David and Goliath

In this message from 1 Samuel 16–17, Elliot Hoeks walks through the account of David and Goliath, one of the most well-known stories in Scripture. Rather than being about self-confidence or “facing our giants,” the passage highlights David’s trust in the faithfulness of God. While Saul and the army trembled in fear, David stepped forward with courage rooted not in himself but in the Lord who delivers His people. This story also points us to Jesus, the true Champion who has already won the victory over sin and death. As we reflect on this passage, we are reminded to look back on God’s past faithfulness so we can walk forward in confidence that He will be faithful again.
