Show Notes

David And Goliath

Hey parents! Use these questions as a guide to talk over this week’s lesson, David and Goliath, with your child after they’ve watched the video service!

  1. What was your favorite part of the video we just watched?
  2. Was David afraid of Goliath? Why did he feel this way?
    David wasn’t afraid of Goliath because he knew God was bigger and stronger. He was confident in God!
  3. Why was David confident in God?
    David remembered the times that God had taken care of him before – like when he rescued David from lions and bears. He knew that God was bigger and stronger than all things – even Goliath. David didn’t need to be afraid because he knew that God would still do great things.
  4. What are some great things God has done?
    Spend some time thinking with your child about the good things God has done in the Bible and some good things God has done for you and your family!
  5. Pray with your child. You might say something like this:
    Dear God, thank you for the great things you have done for me. Help me to remember those great things, and to always know that you will do great things again because you are a good God, and you love me. I love you! Amen.

When he got there, he saw a giant who was being very rug. • The giant was Goliath • • and was over 9ft tall. Hey. But that didn't scare David. No, not at all. • • David said, who does this giant think he is? I'll take him out. King Saul said, you're only a boy. You don't know what you're talking about. Wait. David said, I have killed lions and bears with my rod. • • Besides, this giant is no match for God. • • • • David grabbed five smooth stones from the stream. Goliath laughed David's outmatched, or so it would seem. Uh, david put the stone in his sling and sent it goliath bound. It hit Goliath in the head, and the giant fell down. • • • On that day, David defeated a giant with a stone and a sling. And because he loved God, he one day became king.
