Facing Your Giants
by Max Lucado
David's life as a guide to fear, failure, grief and triumph: Goliath, Saul, Bathsheba, Absalom. Lucado's point is that David faced his giants by focusing on God, and fell when he stopped. A good popular treatment of a flawed hero.

- Even heroes fall; what matters is the return.
- Grief is allowed.
Do this first
Read the Goliath chapter and name your giant.
