How do we overcome those battles in our lives that we always seem to be fighting?It is not God's plan for you to live with some big giant standing in the middle of your life demoralizing you day after day after day and diminishing God's glory, robbing God's glory in your life. It s never been more important that we understand that our freedom and God's glory are forever interwoven into one story. God does want us to live free. He wants us to recognize that He s already killed the giant.We all have giants in our lives that creep in and take over. Giants like rejection, anxiety, fear, anger, and addiction. These adversaries establish a foothold, and before we know it we are tolerating something that is diminishing the glory of God in our lives and holding us back from the freedom that Jesus intends for us. So how do we break out of these patterns once and for all?Put aside what you may think about the classic David vs. Goliath story. In Goliath Must Fall, Giglio shows us how to dwell on the size of our God, not the height of our giants. Once we understand the source of our giants, we can ensure that whatever our affliction is, it can, will, and must fall down with the power of Jesus."

When we think of our own story, we may see God as the author - an omniscient and omnipotent cosmic mastermind - but fail to recognize Him as the central character.

We are living through a unique, era-defining period. Many of our old certainties have gone, whatever our view of the world and whatever our beliefs. The coronavirus pandemic and its effects are perplexing and unsettling for all of us. How do we begin to think it through and cope with it?In this short yet profound book, Oxford mathematics professor John Lennox examines the coronavirus in light of various belief systems and shows how the Christian worldview not only helps us to make sense of it, but also offers us a sure and certain hope to cling to.John Lennox is an Emeritus Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oxford and Emeritus Fellow in Mathematics and the Philosophy of Science at Green Templeton College. He is also an Associate Fellow of the Said Business School and an Adjunct Lecturer for The Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics. He is particularly interested in the interface of science, philosophy and theology. Lennox has been part of numerous public debates defending the Christian faith against well known atheists including Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens and Peter Singer. He is the author of a number of books, including “Can Science Explain Everything?”

Tohtoripunkkarin tilitys henkisestä odysseiastaan, anarkian luovuudesta ja luovuuden anarkistisuudesta.Greg Graffin tunnetaan punkbändi Bad Religionin laulajana, mutta harva tietää, että hän on valmistunut filosofian tohtoriksi ja opettaa evoluutiobiologiaa Kalifornian yliopistossa. Provokatiivisen omintakeisessa kirjassaan hän kuvaa, miten hänestä tuli muusikko ja miten hänen Jumalaa, tiedettä ja ihmisen olemassaoloa pohdiskeleva naturalistinen maailmankatsomuksensa kehittyi.Graffin on koko ikänsä ollut tinkimätön kyseenalaistaja, joka ei ole hyväksynyt valmiita totuuksia sen paremmin kotona, punkskenessä kuin yliopistossakaan. Punkympyröissä Graffinilla oli joka ilta tarjolla huumeita, seksiä ja ikävyyksiä, mutta tinkimätön totuudenetsijä halusi laajentaa tajuntaansa kestävämmin keinoin. Hän huomasi, että evoluution tutkiminen antoi välineet ymmärtää maailmaa.Virkistävän vivahteikkaan ja oivaltavan puheenvuoron ateismista ja ihmisen alkuperästä esittävä kirja on pakollista luettavaa kaikille, joita kiinnostaa omien voimavarojen vapauttaminen tai jotka ovat pohtineet, onko Jumala todella olemassa."Bad Religionin laulaja Greg Graffin pohtii mielenkiintoisesti lajien syntyä ja kehitystä verraten sitä punk-aatteen leviämiseen. Evoluutio tai anarkia ei kumpikaan tottele vallitsevia lakeja sen mukaan, miten kuuluisi tapahtua. Kaikki vain tapahtuu sen mukaan, miten yksilöt reagoivat ympäristöön."- Tiia Suorsa, Libero”Nöyrä, haastava ja innostava… Graffiniin nämä molemmat maailmat vetosivat siksi, että ne parhaimmillaan haastavat auktoriteetit, dogmit ja oletetut totuudet ja raivaavat tilaa luovuuden anarkistisille toimintatavoille.”– Kirkus Reviews"Sisältöä riittää ja Graffinin tyylissä on sopiva kettuilun maku."– Feniks Willamo, Libero
