## Resource

Step into one of the most dramatic and transformative periods in the Old Testament as Lynne Hilton Wilson explores 1 Samuel 17 through 2 Samuel 7. In this episode, we examine the legendary confrontation between David and Goliath, the fall of Saul, and the rise of David from shepherd boy to king of Israel. What can we learn from the women who shaped these events—often quietly, courageously, and faithfully behind the scenes? Dr. Wilson highlights the influence of figures such as Michal, Abigail, Bathsheba, and other women whose stories illuminate covenant faithfulness, wisdom, political courage, and spiritual strength during a turbulent era in Israel’s history. This episode also explores: • David’s faith in confronting Goliath • The contrast between Saul and David’s leadership • Covenant relationships and kingship in ancient Israel • The role of women in preserving families, kingdoms, and Faith • Messianic themes and covenant promises in 2 Samuel 7 • Insights from Hebrew culture, history, and scripture scholarship
