Remember Who You Are: From King David To Simba (The Lion King)

After reflecting on the life of King David — chosen, flawed, and deeply loved — we continue the journey in an unexpected place: The Lion King.What does a 1994 animated film have to do with Scripture?More than we think.In this episode, we explore the spiritual parallels between David and Simba — identity, exile, shame, calling, and the voice of the Father that never stops speaking.Both David and Simba forget who they are.Both must confront the lie.Both must return.And in both stories, identity was never lost — only forgotten.This conversation prepares the way for what comes next in our series: John the Baptist and the courage to fully embrace who God says we are.If you’ve been running… doubting… or living beneath your calling — this episode is a reminder:You are still the King’s child.
