David and Goliath is a classic story with great instructive potential. In this series of posts I hope to unearth some of the practical life lessons it has to teach.
In the last few verses of his first epistle, John shares three things that we can “know” … influential and important things that can profoundly shape our relationship with God.

A primary charge spelled out in Scripture is for the older generation to influence the younger—a practice that is lost in many churches because the generations rarely come together.
