| 0:04.3 | If you've enjoyed this podcast so far, please share it with your family and friends and help us spread God's word. |
| 0:11.8 | Welcome to the epic adventure of David, a story of honor, battle, jealousy, darkness, friendship, love, scandal, and murder. |
| 0:20.8 | While most people know of David the myth, |
| 0:23.1 | few people know about David the man. I'm glad you're here with me as we mind the depths of |

| 1:42.1 | hero. This prelude reminds us that there is a greater giant than Goliath and a greater hero than David. |
| 1:49.1 | Let's not wait any longer. |
| 1:50.9 | It's time for episode six, David and Goliath. |
