Giant Lessons from David


Book Description

The definition of success varies widely from person to person and is often influenced by one’s goals, dreams, experiences, and stage in life. Anyone considered to be a public success has survived personal attacks, sabotage, hardships, and disappointments. Nevertheless, neither their survival nor success would be noteworthy apart from the lessons they learned along the way. This book is not intended to be a self-help guide that dictates a prearranged series of steps to success. Rather, by drawing insights from the life of David (who began as a humble shepherd boy and became the most celebrated king in the history of Israel), “Giant Lessons From David” seeks to help you manage your own journey of success. To that end, this book makes a few fundamental presuppositions. First, success is a journey that always entails enemies, experiences, and emotions that must be managed. Second, success is influenced by the providential favor of God. Third, there are valuable lessons to be learned about God, life, and self at every stage of the journey. Practical, uplifting, and relatable, this biblically based book of “Giant Lessons” from the life of David is a must-read for anyone looking to manage the highs and lows of a successful life.

David The Great


Book Description

How much do you really know about the life of KING DAVID? He was a man of unwavering loyalty, great faith, and national vision. He was a Spirit-led poet with prophetic and Messianic insights who reached beyond the millennia. He was a musician whose lullabies could soothe a demon-haunted soul. He was a political leader strong enough to forge a single nation out of disparate tribes. But he was also an adulterer, a murderer, a mercenary raider, and a hated father. He caused suffering among his people with an act of hubris. He ordered the execution of his enemies on his deathbed. He enjoyed many wives and concubines. Most of all, he broke the laws of both God and man.




Facing Your Giants


Book Description

In Facing Your Giants, Max Lucado uses the story of David to help you learn how to allow God to work with and for you, and to remind you of whom you are to and in Him. You are seen, loved, and cared for by the God who still does the impossible. You know your Goliath. You recognize his walk, the thunder of his voice. He taunts you with bills you can't pay, people you can't please, habits you can't break, failures you can't forget, and a future you can't face. But just like David, you can face your giant, even if you aren't the strongest, the smartest, the best equipped, of the holiest. Focus on giants--you stumble; focus on God--your giants tumble. If you're ready to face your giants, let his story inspire you. The same God who helped him will help you.




Lessons from Elijah


Book Description

Learning through experience definitely makes an impression, but isn't it better sometimes to learn from the successes and failures of others? Scripture tells us that those who came before us are examples for us (1 Cor. 10:6 and 11), given that we could learn what to do-and what not to do. Few offer us the lessons that Elijah does.Looking...




David and Goliath


Book Description

Why do underdogs succeed so much more than we expect? How do the weak outsmart the strong? In David and Goliath Malcolm Gladwell, no.1 bestselling author of The Tipping Point, Blink, Outliers and What the Dog Saw, takes us on a scintillating and surprising journey through the hidden dynamics that shape the balance of power between the small and the mighty. From the conflicts in Northern Ireland, through the tactics of civil rights leaders and the problem of privilege, Gladwell demonstrates how we misunderstand the true meaning of advantage and disadvantage. When does a traumatic childhood work in someone's favour? How can a disability leave someone better off? And do you really want your child to go to the best school he or she can get into? David and Goliath draws on the stories of remarkable underdogs, history, science, psychology and on Malcolm Gladwell's unparalleled ability to make the connections others miss. It's a brilliant, illuminating book that overturns conventional thinking about power and advantage. 'A global phenomenon... there is, it seems, no subject over which he cannot scatter some magic dust' Observer
