David and Goliath

July 12, 2026

Andrew Dawson explores the story of David and Goliath by showing that the central issue is not courage or overcoming personal obstacles, but where faith is placed. David's trust in the living God shaped his identity, courage, and purpose, standing in sharp contrast to Saul, the Israelites, and Goliath, whose misplaced faith led to fear and failure. The sermon ultimately points beyond David to Jesus, the true Champion whose victory over sin and death gives believers lasting confidence, even when faith is tested through suffering rather than immediate earthly victory.
