You’ve been taught that giants are problems to overcome. But what if they’re actually gifts in disguise? What if the very thing standing in your way is carrying exactly what you need for the battles ahead?
When David faced Goliath, everyone saw an impossible obstacle. But David saw something else: Goliath’s sword. At the time, there were only a handful of swords in all of Israel—and the one David would use to lead his nation to victory after victory came from defeating the giant everyone else was running from.
The Gift of Goliath is a bold, accessible exploration of what biblical faith truly is. Dr. Manny Arango tackles the questions every believer wrestles with: What is real faith? Should we believe God for miracles? What happens when the miracle doesn’t come? Is a lack of healing evidence of a lack of faith? With the passion of a spirit-led preacher and the precision of a biblical scholar, Arango cuts through the confusion and gives readers a framework for faith that holds up in the hardest seasons of life.
Where you see the giant of infertility, debt, or rejection, God sees your sword. This book will teach you to see it too.
