# 162 - David is Anointed - In this episode of The Chosen People with Yael Eckstein, we explore the quiet calling of a shepherd boy overlooked by his family but chosen by God. Through the story of 1 Samuel 16:1–13, we’re reminded that while the world values status and appearance, God looks at the heart and crowns the humble.

Episode 162 of The Chosen People with Yael Eckstein is inspired by the Book of Joshua.
