Title: How to Handle Your Giants
Text: 1 Samuel 17:40-47
Author: Darrow Perkins
INTRODUCTION: Everybody has some kind of giants in their lives. I believe too many times we perceive a giant to be something bigger than life and therefore we immediately become defeated by it because we think it's a force greater than we are.
