Item description for Bktrax-Disc-Facing Your Giants (Abridged) (3 CD) by Max Lucado...
Giants. We must face them. Yet, we need not face them alone. This profound look at the life of David digs deeply into the defeats he suffered, and the victories he won, as he faced the giants in his life. When David focused on God, giants tumbled. But when David focused on giants...he stumbled. Goliaths still roam in our world. Debt. Disaster. Dialysis. Divorce. Deceit. Disease. Depression. These super-sized challenges swagger and strut into our lives, pilfering our sleep, embezzling our peace and robbing us of our joy. And while these giants try to dominate our lives, we know what to do! We've learned what David learned, and we do what David did. We become God focused. We pick up five stones. We make five decisions. And we take a swing.
Additional Information
Facing Your Giants
The God Who Made a Miracle Out of David Stands Ready to Make One Out of You
By Max Lucado
FACING THE GIANTS, a new movie in theaters now, is an inspiring, humorous, and Christ-centered story of a downtrodden Christian high school football coach who turns to God when everything seems to be going against him. Max Lucado has helped craft a FACING THE GIANTS study guide that you can download from the movie's website. "I was amazed (and delighted) at the echoes between the movie and my book," says Max. Using scenes from the film and words from Max's new book, the study guide challenges readers to think through how they are allowing God to help battle the giants in their world. As Max writes, "Focus on giants -- you stumble. Focus on God -- your giants tumble."

 | Another 'Home Run.' Mar 26, 2007 |
| Has Max Lucado ever written a bad book? No! I read mostly war history books but whenever Max publishes a new book, I'm there. "Facing Your Giants" was, once again,a message that I needed for this time in my life. Too bad many Christians do not understand their God like Lucado does, and he brings the love of God to the reader in a simple, easy to read manner. Read this one, and again, identify with God. | | | | Get ready to kick Goliath's butt!!! (and more) Mar 16, 2007 |
If I pick up a book like this, it has to mean something to me. I don't want to sit arm in arm at Starbucks with Rick Warren singing, "If I had a low I. Q., I could be purpose driven too!" I don't want to do that, ok? I know that to walk on water, you have to get out of your boat, and John Ortberg did pretty well with that. But it still left me feeling empty. But most people know the story of David and Goliath. A man like me wants nothing more (STILL, even today) than to take on a big ugly sucker (just like Goliath, who thinks he can trash my God), and just beat the bloody, snotty, dirty piss right out of him! That's just how it is with me, ok? Deal with it! You don't like that vocabulary, too bad. This caught my attention. But in all honesty, I didn't care to pick it up. It didn't have my attention to the point where I wanted to go out of my way to read it. But at my Bible study leader's urging, I picked it up. I loved it!
Hey, Lucado makes it pretty clear that there are more then just Goliath's out there that are giants in our lives. The thing is, we don't have to let fear rule us, and we can fight these bad boys. We can come right at them, just like David did, "In the name of The Lord, the God of Heaven, who will help ME defeat you!" Those are fighting words. "Turn the other cheek" never meant just standing back and taking crap. If you believe that, there's something wrong with you. Especially a man, and it is feminine if you feel that you have to stand there and take everything. Our Bible speaks beautiful words, words of love. But The Bible also speaks of justice, and it makes very clear how important holiness is. The Bible says, "There is a time to kill." and it says, "There is a time for war." It also goes as far as to say, "There is a time for casting stones." That's Ecclesiastes, and it is IN THE BIBLE! So don't use "Turn the other cheek" as your personal punch line just because confrontation makes you uncomfortable! Learn how to face off with the stupid stuff in life. Don't focus on your giants, focus on God. There is some really good stuff in this! If you happen to get ticked because you are always left out, then quit looking at that other person. Simple things that we SIMPLY don't apply to daily life. Work hard for your boss, but don't go dwelling on what the boss thinks. Give some thought to what God thinks. Make God your refuge, not the bar or your job! What's that first commandment say? YOU SHALL HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME! Some Goliath's in your life might be somebody, or even a group of people that you don't like. Sometimes we need to think before getting instant gratification in revenge for one simple reason. God isn't through with that person yet. Until we die, until we breathe our final breath, God isn't finished with us yet! Hey, there's temptation, there's SO much more I could go on about. Who knows, there just may be a NEVERTHELESS in your life. But you'll never know until you get up the guts to face up.
This was great. And I didn't just put it down like some appetizer (burp, good snack!) and say, "That was good stuff!" I allowed myself to digest the teachings of Max Lucado. I gave myself some reflection time on this one. Hey, if you're REALLY looking to be "Purpose Driven", then Rick Warren's in every store, probably even in Lowes and Sears! But if you're ready to kick Goliath's butt, and go toe to toe with some GIANTS in your life, then this is it! Yeah, it is simple teaching. But it is also some teaching with guts, and it isn't afraid to throw a few stones. This will fire you up for Christ, and it'll get the pulse racing at times! I LOVED IT!!! | | | | college and career leader Mar 15, 2007 |
| While I am a big fan of Max Lucado he has outdone himself with "Facing Your Giants". This a unique study of King David's life. It is a story which has practical applications for our current times. Thanks Max! | | | | Inspiration essential for any modern Christian library. Mar 12, 2007 |
The Biblical story of David is punctuated with 'nevertheless' lessons for us all - and FACING YOUR GIANTS focus on this idea, telling how to use God to strengthen resolve and hone a spiritual path in life. Chapters advocate using the David paradigm to evoke miracles in everyday living, and serve as inspiration essential for any modern Christian library.

California Bookwatch | | | | A must read for all who have "Giants" in their life Mar 11, 2007 |
This book is amazing! The detail that Lucado expresses is great. Lucado really eplores King David's life and identifies many parallels to our lives. He reminds us that David was human and made many mistakes, as we have, but the truth to gather from David is to never give up.
The trademark saying from Lucado, "Focus on your giants, and you stumble. Focus on God, and your Giants tumble." rangs true for me, even more than I realized. With my Giants, I now focus on God and my troubles begin to diminish and disappear. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has "Giants" in their life that are seeking to make you stumble and fall. Whether the giants are other people or personal troubles, this book will teach you that God WILL help you face those giants. | | | Write your own review about Bktrax-Disc-Facing Your Giants (Abridged) (3 CD)
