Leading From the Field | Pastor Darin Pearce

In this message, we explore the life of David—shepherd, warrior, king, and worshipper—and what made him a leader after God’s own heart.

David’s journey reminds us that leadership doesn’t begin on a platform—it begins in the field. Long before he faced Goliath, David was being shaped through hidden seasons of faithfulness, service, and trust in God.

In contrast to Saul’s disobedience, David’s life demonstrates the power of humility, repentance, and a surrendered heart. His leadership was not defined by perfection, but by his consistent pursuit of God through every victory and failure.

This message challenges us to:

- Embrace the season we’re in as preparation

- Lead through serving others

- Trust God in every battle

- Prioritize worship and relationship with Him above all else

God is not looking for perfect people—He’s looking for hearts fully devoted to Him.
