In this message, we find three lessons to help us face our giants. Whether ours is a decisive victory or a drawn-out battle, no giant is bigger than God.

Courage takes years to develop, but only a moment to demonstrate. David’s courage before Goliath started in a pasture while tending sheep.

When we face insurmountable obstacles, we often ask, “Where is God?” David faced a literal giant named Goliath. In this message from 1 Samuel 17, we paint the picture of the pagan giant and the paralyzed army. Our seemingly giant-sized problems are dwarfed by the size of our God.

God chose David unexpectedly because of the integrity of his heart—not his outward appearance. If we were choosing a king, we would naturally choose a warrior not a teenage boy who tends sheep.

When no one thinks we amount to anything, we are often ignored. Young David had lots of older brothers who overshadowed him as he tended sheep. In this message, we meet his brothers according to their birth order. God used the conflicts of David’s early family life to prepare him to become king.

We typically evaluate people by their appearance, personality, or intelligence. But in 1 Samuel 16, we discover that God evaluated the shepherd boy David differently than his brothers.

When we give to our church, what kind of outcome do we anticipate? Since God’s grace to us abounds, we can practice generosity.

Is there a correspondence between what we give financially and what God is going to give back to us? Scripture reveals God’s heart towards givers.

How much should we give to God’s work? We reap what we sow. The law of sowing and reaping applies in giving. In this message, we explore the context of Paul’s revolutionary understanding of finances for the church in Corinth. Let’s identify what might hinder us from being cheerful givers.

Money is powerfully deceptive. In Jesus’ parable of the rich man and Lazarus, He reveals how money can blind us to what’s on the other side of eternity.

Pastor Erwin Lutzer says, “If money becomes our God, it will eventually become our devil.” In Luke 16, Jesus gave us a parable about shrewdly managing money. In this message, we reflect on how to turn worldly wealth into eternal dividends. Where we invest our money reveals our ultimate loyalties.
