How to Dance Around an Angry Brother

Sep 15, 2024    Kevin Johnson, Pastor

In 1 Samuel 17:22-31, David navigates the anger of his brother Eliab by responding with wisdom and gentleness rather than engaging in conflict, understanding that family is not the enemy. Eliab’s anger stemmed from his own guilt and jealousy, but David, filled with God's Spirit, remained focused on his true mission. By answering wrath with wisdom, David teaches us to discern when to fight and when to let go, keeping our focus on God's greater purpose.
