David’s Best Friend
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
After David defeats Goliath, the people cheer for him, but King Saul becomes jealous and angry. Even while David plays his harp, Saul tries to hurt him. Thankfully, David has a true friend in Saul’s son, Jonathan. Jonathan helps David learn whether it is safe to return to the palace, but when Saul throws a spear at Jonathan too, they both know David must run.
David hides in caves with his family, friends, and hundreds of men while Saul searches for him. Then one day, Saul walks right into the very cave where David is hiding. David has the perfect chance to hurt Saul, but he chooses mercy instead. This story reminds kids that true friendship is loyal, jealousy is dangerous, and God can help us do what is right even when others treat us unfairly.
Talk about it:
- Why did King Saul become jealous of David?
- How did Jonathan show that he was a true friend?
- Why did David refuse to hurt Saul in the cave?
- What does this story teach us about mercy and loyalty?
- How can you be a faithful friend this week?
