Slay Your David

In this powerful Mother's Day sermon, Pastor Mark delves into the well-known Bible story of David and Goliath, but with a fresh perspective. Drawing from 1 Samuel 17, Mark emphasizes that the story is not about summoning the inner champion within us to face our giants, but rather about recognizing the unbeatable enemies we face—our flesh, the world, and the devil. He highlights how the passage calls us to bow down and depend on God, rather than relying on our own strength or strategies. Mark connects the narrative to the struggles faced by mothers and believers in general, encouraging the congregation to trust in God as the true warrior and savior who fights on their behalf. The sermon challenges the common interpretation of self-determination and instead points to Jesus as the ultimate deliverer.
