    How To Become A Giant Slayer

    Contributed by John Daniel Johnson on Oct 1, 2018
     | 7,365 views

    At some time in every one of our lives, we will have to face a giant. That giant maybe a sin, possibly a challenge, or it might be just a giant step of faith. No matter what that giant is, it will not just go away just because you won’t face it.

    Facing Giants Series

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Sep 24, 2019
     | 6,835 views

    "Facing Giants" from the David and Goliath story in 1 Samuel 17. The point is that our "giants" aren't always what they seem to be and neither are we. With the help of God we are greater than we imagine and the giants are smaller.

    1. We love the Underdog stories In February, 1980, the US Olympic Hockey team took the ice in Lake Placid, NY to face the toughest hockey team in the world – the USSR. Two weeks before in Olympic competition, the Russians beat the Americans, 12-2. That night, however, proved to be different. The US ...read more

    One of the unfortunate realities about living in this world is the existence of bullies who intimidate and threaten others. The Bible describes one such bully named Goliath. His threats against Israel and God ceased when he encountered David and one smooth stone.

    Bullies have existed in this fallen world ever since Cain killed Abel at the beginning of civilization (Genesis 4:8). However, as the days get darker spiritually and the love of people grows cold (Matthew 24:12; Romans 1:18-32), the problem of bullying is only going to grow like a cancer across ...read more
