Running with the Giants

Серия: "-"

How would legendary figures in the Bible advise us today? We are running the race of our lives and it's a long one. We need encouragement along the way - a cheering grandstand or a personal trainer or two. John C. Maxwell reminds us that even in a modern world, the greatest inspiration is still found within the pages of the Old Testament. In RUNNING WITH THE GIANTS, Maxwell brings those great personalities to life. David would remind us how to overcome adversity. Noah would tell us not to fear doing the impossible. And Rebekah would urge us to give and give generously. Each of these and many other Biblical figures Maxwell examines can motivate believers toward their personal best in the marathon of life.
