Facing Your Giants Study Guide: Discover More About the King David of the Bible and How to Defeat Your Goliath. Perfect for Fans of House of David

by Max Lucado

Learn how you can face and defeat your giants, just like King David did.

How long has your Goliath dominated your days and pilfered your peace?

Like David, you know well the presence of Goliath. Your Goliath doesn't carry a sword or shield; he brandishes blades of unemployment, abandonment, or depression. Your giant doesn't parade up and down ancient hills; he prances through your office, your bedroom, your classroom. He brings bills you can't pay, addictions you can't resist, a past you can't shake, and a future you cant face.

How long has your Goliath stalked you? Invaded your first thought of the morning and last worry of the night?

David knows a little something about facing giants. The shepherd boy seemingly had little to offer against the nine-foot, nine-inch Goliath. You could read his story and wonder what God saw in him. Throughout his life, David fell as often as he stood, stumbled as often as he conquered.

But for those who know the threat of a Goliath, David gives this

Focus on Giants—You Stumble.Focus on God—Your Giants Tumble. 

The Facing Your Giants Study Guide will teach you to look past your problem toward the solution. Based on the life of David, this study guide is guaranteed to provide inspiration to succeed against even the most threatening difficulty.

Are you ready to face your giant? Let David's story inspire you. The same God who helped him will help you.

[Ettore Grillo · Rating 5 out of 5]

Facing your Giants by Max Lucado has helped me overcome some of the challenges I have encountered in my life. While reading it, I have also looked inside myself to understand my real nature. I consider this book as powerful as psychoanalysis, maybe more.
A maxim in Max Lucado’s Facing your Giants impressed me a lot: “Focus on giants, you stumble. Focus on God, your giants tumble.” David could kill the giant, Goliath because he focused his attention on God, not on the giant who was facing him. Obviously, the giants are just metaphors that symbolize the difficult situations we encounter along our way.
I have applied this maxim to my ordinary life and I have to say that it has always helped me. Whenever I confronted a giant, that is a very difficult situation, I tried to overcome it not through my reasoning, but simply by trusting in God. Through God’s help, I have always succeeded, while through my reasoning, sometimes I lost.
I would recommend this book to whomever wants to proceed on their spiritual path toward the final destination, which is to be one with God.
