Flawed but Chosen

Ps Dan Cronin

Flawed but Chosen | Week 1 – A Heart That God Sees
📖 1 Samuel 16:1–13

In a world obsessed with appearances, God is looking deeper—for hearts that are fully His. In this opening message of our new series, Flawed but Chosen, we explore the moment when David, a forgotten shepherd boy, was seen and chosen by God.

He didn’t look the part. He wasn’t even invited to the room.
But God saw his heart—and called him anyway.

Whether you feel overlooked, unqualified, or stuck in obscurity, this message will encourage you: God sees you, God knows you, and God has a purpose for you.

🎧 Flawed but Chosen – Week 2: Giants Fall When Faith Stands
📖 1 Samuel 17:1–50

In this bold and faith-filled message, we explore one of the most famous stories in Scripture—David and Goliath. But this isn’t just about a giant falling… it’s about what happens when unlikely faith rises.

Pastor Dan shares how real courage comes from conviction, not confidence. You don’t need someone else’s armour—just faith, obedience, and what God’s already put in your hand.

💥 What giant are you facing this week?
💡 Be reminded: God + your obedience = victory.

🎧 Flawed but Chosen – Week 3: When the Applause Turns Sour

This week, we explore a turning point in David’s journey — when public praise gave way to private jealousy. As Saul’s insecurity rises, David continues to walk in humility and faithfulness. In this message, Ps Dan shares how to handle opposition that comes not because you’re doing something wrong, but because you’re doing something right.

💡 Key takeaway: Insecurity in others can’t cancel God’s call on your life. Your job is to stay faithful — let God be sovereign.

Listen in and be encouraged to keep playing your harp, even when the atmosphere turns hostile. God's favour still rests on you.

📖 1 Samuel 18:1–16

What do you do when the promise feels far away?
In this message from Week 5 of our Flawed But Chosen series, we explore 2 Samuel 5:1–12—where, after 15 years of hardship, David is finally crowned king over all Israel. But this moment wasn’t just about position—it was about preparation.

Discover how the years in the wilderness weren’t wasted, how God shapes us in obscurity, and how true leadership looks more like shepherding than striving. If you’re in a season of waiting or wondering when your breakthrough will come, this message will speak right to your heart.

🗝 “Just because it’s delayed doesn’t mean it’s denied. God never wastes a waiting season.”
