1 SamuelSteve Gregg
In this segment, Steve Gregg shares insights on the biblical story of David and Goliath.

Gregg also comments on the height of Goliath and the contest between him and the armies of Israel. He questions Saul's courage and examines the relationship between David and his father Jesse, speculating on why Jesse did not call upon his other sons to fight in the battle.
