Description
We all know the legendary tale of David and Goliath: a young shepherd boy armed with nothing but a sling takes down an invincible, towering giant. But when we look closer at the history, geography, and what is actually mentioned in the Bible, a different picture begins to emerge.
But what if it is not the story you’ve been told?
Was the giant really even named Goliath? Was he actually slain by David? And how does this moment point toward the Messiah, the Son of David? Join us as we investigate the real story,
separating history from legend. This is the showdown of David versus Goliath.
