"Closely related to our own obligation to repent is the generosity of letting others do the same...In this we participate in the very essence of the Atonement of Jesus Christ...We don't want God to remember our sins, so there is something fundamentally wrong in our relentlessly trying to remember others' sins...It is one of those ironies of godhood that in order to find peace, the offended as well as the offender must engage the principle of forgiveness."

Against the Giant
Christy Hardman
Ancient Israel faces a terrible threat - the Philistines!
David is a young Israelite who trusts the Lord. But being the youngest can be hard. While David tends sheep, his older brothers are out battling the Philistines. They come back boasting of their strength and telling tales of their enemy.
The Philistines are stronger, larger, and have better weapons. In contrast, the Israelites are fewer, smaller, and have weapons of only stone and stick. No one wants to fight the fearsome Philistines. To survive, Israel needs to rely on God and to listen to the prophet. But the Israelites won't listen, which leads them to a big problem - a Philistine named Goliath.
Against the Giant delves deep into the classic biblical story and brings to light a brand-new perspective as it tells the story through young David's own eyes. Feel the thrills and the terror, along with the growth and courage, as if you were there standing against the giant yourself.
