David from the Old Testament was a lot of things to a lot of people. In addition to being the second ruler of Israel and one of the greatest kings in history, he was a legendary poet, harpist, and hymn writer. Evidence of his talent is the fact that 73 of the Bible’s 150 Psalms are credited to the pen of David.
 
But when people think of one of Scripture's most pivotal figures, most remember him for his bravery as a teenager, for standing up to a giant with nothing but a sling and five small stones. 
 
This is the David that animation studio Minno and Slingshot Productions are showcasing in their latest video release. Young Davidsteps into David’s early life and explores the actual people, places, and kinds of events that  he would have experienced. But most importantly, each episode focuses on a defining characteristic of David, someone God called a man after His own heart.
 
Minno Co-founder and CEO Erick Goss believes that children deserve incredible stories presented in creative, engaging ways. He says that state-of-the-art animation blended with timeless tales of faith and virtue is one of the best, if not THE best way to reach young audiences with the life-impacting message of God’s love for us.
 
Goss joins us on the Crossmap Podcast to talk about why the life of David translates so well to today’s 21st Century audiences. Listen as he shares why animation is such a wonderful medium to connect across race, cultural, age and gender barriers.
