The Unlikely King

Dec 11, 2022    Pastor Dan Spencer

In this series, we are looking at three Bethlehem events that tell the story behind the Christmas story.


This session focuses on the book of 1 Samuel, where we find a major event that happened in Bethlehem. A thousand years before King Jesus was born there, King David was anointed there. And just as nobody in Bethlehem expected the little baby in the manger would be a King, nobody in Bethlehem expected David would be much of anything – certainly not a king! 


Let's look at 1 Samuel 16:1-13.
