Here is a snippet of one retold story about David and Goliath that begins as follows. •The Israelites had an enemy they were unable to defeat. Their enemy was the Philistines. The Philistines came into the country of Canaan by sea. They were a war-like people and were able to defeat most people. But they were unable to defeat the Israelites.• The Israelites and the Philistines were at war with each other. They were so evenly matched that every time they went into battle they both lost many soldiers, but neither side could defeat the other….Finally, the Philistines thought up a plan to defeat the Israelites and not lose many people. They shouted to the Israelites, “Our hero Goliath will fight anyone in your army. If our hero wins, you lose. If your hero beats our hero, we lose. The losers will become the slave of the winners.”…. • These Bible stories are enriched by various activities such as music, stories, word searches, and hands-on projects that reinforce the focus of each lesson.• For more information on this excellent curriculum and nine other grade level offerings, visit www.mustardseedseries.com.
