Bedtime Stories – Facing The Giant

In this lesson, we are looking at 1 Samuel 17, which is the account of David and Goliath. This may be the most well-known story in the Bible and it has created a whole category of story (the “underdog” stories, such as U.S. colonies v. Britain, U.S. hockey team v. Russia, etc). In this lesson, we’ll see that although the story is well known, it is often misunderstood. This is not a story to motivate us to fight our personal giants but rather a story showing us that we need someone to fight our giant for us.
