June 16, 2024 • Chip Henderson • 2 Samuel 23:8–12
To be the mighty man God wants you to be is a high calling and great responsibility. Study after study shows that when a father is present and engaged, women and marriages flourish, kids excel and communities rise.

And, one of the reasons David’s kingdom was established and sustained is because David was surrounded by some “Mighty Men” — men who were loyal, courageous, and servant-hearted.
