Conquering Your Own Goliaths

In the days of King Saul, the armies of Israel were challenged by Goliath, champion of the Philistines. Goliath was a giant, over nine feet tall. No one dared to confront him.

Then David, a lowly shepherd boy who trusted in the Lord, brought down Goliath with a sling and slew him with the giant's own sword.

In our day, we too face Goliaths. But most of them are Goliaths of the spirit, Goliaths that will not yield to a stone or a sword. Still, as the Lord helped David, so will he help us. He will provide the weapons we need to defeat our own Goliaths.

In Conquering Your Own Goliaths, Steven A. Cramer, author of The Worth of a Soul, Great Shall Be Your Joy, In the Arms of His Love and Putting on the Armor of God, shows how we can enlist the aid of the Lord in overcoming our problems. He discusses the Goliath of a poor self-image, of thought control, of temptation, of adversity, of unresolved guilt, of indecision. He explains our need for the atonement of Christ in overcoming these and all other problems. And he shows that the Lord always has a way to deliver us from even the most serious of circumstances.

The author writes: "In this book we will discuss how to take advantage of the Lord's atonement, how to overcome the spiritual barriers that keep us apart from God, and how to conquer the Goliath-sized weaknesses and habits that prevent us from enjoying the fullness of his love."

Conquering Your Own Goliaths is a valuable resource for all who want to draw closer to the Lord and find permanent solutions for the problems of life.
