Show Notes: In this episode, Dr. Robyn Kassas and Dr. Nathan Kassas reflect on the season casting conference and the upcoming documentary The Purim Cycle, then continue through the Valley Gate with David and Goliath in 1 Samuel 17. They explain that David did not let Goliath reveal anything he had not already encountered with the Lord, connecting this to rehearsal, the Hebrew word for convocation in Leviticus 23, and the feasts as rehearsals. Israel saw a threat and feared, while David remembered the lion and the bear. They say the brain's prediction can serve God's glory, that David was formed in the valley and crowned in the palace, and that what we conquer privately prepares us for what we confront publicly.
