SERIES: Movers & Shakers
MESSAGE: God's Pick of the Litter
SPEAKER: Skip Heitzig
SCRIPTURE: 1 Samuel 16:1-13

MESSAGE SUMMARY
No child of God goes out to make enemies. On the contrary, the true Christian is a peacemaker. However, not everyone connected to your life feels the same way. Though you may try to live at peace with all people, it won't always be possible to do so. Some will mildly disagree with your position and views. Others will be downright belligerent and antagonistic. There may even be some who will threaten your life. What then? Let me offer three nuggets of truth from this story of Saul and David:
