Weekly Leader Training for Preschool & Kids: Unit 11, Session 2—David Fought Goliath
The name of the Lord is holy and set apart. For those who follow Christ, the name of God is one which ought to be held in high regard, above all other names.

Weekly Leader Training for Preschool & Kids: Unit 10, Session 1—Israel Demanded a King
It can happen to any of us: We look at our circumstances, forecast a coming trial or opportunity, and act accordingly—only to find out that the situation doesn’t play out quite like we expected. This is precisely what happened in 1 Samuel 8–10. The people of Israel, while assessing their circumstances, discerned that Samuel’s days were numbered. They recognized...
