David, Shepherd, Warrior, King: The Story of David and Goliath (Bible Story Heroes)

Step into one of the most powerful and beloved stories in the Bible with David: Shepherd, Warrior, King — a thrilling retelling of the epic battle between David and Goliath. This inspiring story captures the heart of a young shepherd boy who faced a giant not with armor or sword, but with unshakable faith in God. When the fearsome Philistine warrior Goliath challenges the army of Israel, fear grips every soldier in King Saul’s camp. No one dares to step forward–until young David, the youngest son of Jesse, arrives with food for his brothers and hears the giant’s mocking words. Despite his youth and humble background, David is filled with boldness from the Lord. Armed with only a slingshot, five smooth stones, and complete trust in God, David steps onto the battlefield. In a single moment of courage, David changes the course of Israel’s history. His victory over Goliath is more than just a battle won–it’s a timeless reminder that faith, not fear, makes heroes.
