Week 3
BIG IDEA: God, you comfort me when I'm afraid.
Let's dive into our third week of our series David. This week kids will learn about the friendship between David and Jonathan. Now, if you remember God had chosen David to be the new king of Israel. And after David conquered Goliath, everyone loved him, except Saul. Saul felt David was a threat to his power. Even though Saul tried to hurt David on several occasions, David still kept helping him. David didn't let Saul's harshness affect his behavior. Even though David could not trust Saul, he could trust his son, Jonathan. The two of them were very close friends. Jonathan didn't let anger or jealousy control him. Although David was afraid whenever Saul got upset with him, he was grateful that God had provided him with a friend as wonderful as Jonathan, who comforted and loved him.
