The Sling: 5 Stones to Make Every Man a Giant Slayer

48 As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him. 49 Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground.

50 So David triumphed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone.

Like David, have you ever felt assaulted by the giants of your life? Are the giants of greed, lust, performance, failure, and fear hurling vulgar obscenities and death threats from the battlefield of your life, threatening your family, friends, finances, and faith? The Lord has shown me–like David–five stones that every man should have in his pouch. The stones of Show Up, Worship, Prayer, Word, and Community are waiting to be slung skillfully and without hesitation toward whatever giants are mocking your masculinity. The Sling is a companion piece to the best–selling men's book CaveTime: God's Plan for Man's Escape from Life's Assaults but is also a stand–alone piece to be used as a men's individual or small group study.

The Sling is not your typical men's book or study manual. I give you the stones, show you how to sling them, then the rest is up to you. Stand between life and death for your family, brothers, and all those you love. Like David, it is time to run toward your giants.
Slingers, are you with me?
