Teaching A cave becomes a shelter for many

When you're hurting or afraid, there is a safe place - and we can be a safe place for others, the way David was.

  • All kinds of hurting people came to David's cave. Who is someone you know who might need a friend right now?
  • David told Abiathar, "You will be safe with me." What makes a person feel safe?
  • How could you make your home, your class, or your team a "safe cave" where everyone belongs?
