House of David, Season 2: Trusting God in the Middle of the Story is a 30-day journey through the life of David—his battles, waiting, friendships, failures, and worship. Along the way, you’ll see the sharp contrast with Saul, who grasped for control, and David, who leaned on God. Each day offers Scripture, reflection, and a question to help you find courage, hope, and trust in the middle of your story. You can watch House of David Season 2 on the Wonder Project subscription on Prime Video.

1 Samuel charts the rise and fall of several of Israel’s leaders. You’ll meet the notoriously arrogant king Saul and see the ascent of the man after God’s own heart – David. You’ll read of dangerous battles, murder plots, giants and even more surprises in this book.  You’ll see that despite turbulence in leadership, seemingly strong enemies and spiritual decay God is very much at work orchestrating the fall of the proud and the rise of the humble. What an encouragement for us today when we are faced with challenges not too dissimilar to these!
