Script Summary:
Young David, a shepherd boy, visits his brothers at the battlefield where the Philistine giant Goliath mocks Israel’s army. While King Saul and his soldiers tremble in fear, David boldly volunteers to fight. Despite wearing no heavy armor, David trusts God and uses just a sling and a stone. He strikes Goliath’s forehead, causing the giant to collapse. Israel’s army cheers, and the Philistines run away. King Saul is amazed and wonders who David is, learning he is the son of Jesse from Bethlehem. David’s faith and bravery save Israel, showing that trusting God can help overcome even the biggest challenges.
