The Courage of David and the Giant by Ed Bejarana

Written by:  Ed Bejarana | Published on: November 12, 2024

This is the story of young David, a shepherd who, despite his small stature and lack of battle training, bravely volunteers to face the giant Goliath, who has terrorized his village. While others doubt him, David’s faith and determination lead him to step forward. Against all odds, David defeats Goliath, proving that true courage comes from the heart and belief in a higher purpose. The story reinforces themes of bravery, faith, and the idea that strength doesn’t come solely from physical power.

About the Narrator:

Ed Bejarana, founder of The Veterans Club and a US Army veteran, is a spirited champion for community and connection. Back in the ’80s, he served as a military musician with the 3rd Armored Division Band in Frankfurt, Germany, and later used the GI Bill to pursue a college education. With training as a computer technologist, Ed combined his love for music and tech to build a thriving 35-year career in digital marketing and small business support. Self-employed since 2007, Ed now brings his voice talent to audiobooks, commercials, training videos, and public service announcements.

Living in beautiful North Idaho with his wife of over 33 years and their Golden Retriever, Roxie, Ed enjoys a busy, joy-filled life. With nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren, Ed and Kay are well-loved by their family.

Ed created Narrated By The Veterans Club after realizing how few audiobooks are human-narrated for visually impaired listeners. Driven by a mission to combat veteran and first responder suicide, he created this nonprofit to unite veterans around meaningful causes. Through community-minded projects, such as audiobooks for the visually impaired, Ed’s passion for service continues to make a lasting impact.
