Facing Your Giants: God Still Does the Impossible
YOU KNOW YOUR GOLIATH. YOU RECOGNIZE HIS WALK, THE THUNDER OF HIS VOICE. HE TAUNTS YOU with bills you can't pay, people you can't please, habits you can't break, failures you can't forget, and a futur...e you can't face. But just like David, you can face your giant, even if you aren't the strongest, the smartest, the best equipped, or the holiest. David. You could read his story and wonder what God saw in him. His life has little to offer the unstained, straight-A saint. He fell as often as he stood, stumbled as often as he conquered. But for those who know the sound of a Goliath, David gives this reminder: FOCUS ON GIANTS YOU STUMBLE. FOCUS ON GOD YOUR GIANTS TUMBLE. If you're ready to face your giants, let his story inspire you. The same God who helped him will help you. Publishers Weekly Megaseller Lucado, with 40 million books in print, will draw more readers to his fold with this newest release, which focuses on the life of the Old Testament hero David. David crashed onto the scene in ancient Israel when he used a slingshot and one stone to fell the giant Goliath. He went on to become Israel's greatest king. Now Lucado has modern readers slaying their own giants using principles gleaned from David's life. For example, David focused on God, not giants; David's life was threatened by his nemesis King Saul, but David worshiped God; David stole the beautiful Bathsheba from her husband and then had him killed, but God forgave. Lucado goes beyond the storytelling to offer readers concrete actions to help slay their giants using the metaphor of the five stones David chose in his Goliath quest. The stones represent the past, prayer, priority, passion and persistence. Lucado's lively language ("Focus on giants-you stumble. Focus on God-your giants tumble.") and casual style appeal to the most reluctant readers, yet his spiritual depth will challenge and amaze. Added value comes with the study guide keyed to each chapter. Lucado has a giant winner here. (Nov. 21) Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.

Against the Odds: Tales of Achievement
The common thread among the 18 stories in Against the Odds is the way people can resourcefully overcome obstacles to realize their ambitions and dreams. The “odds” are varied in these skillfully writt...en tales. An obstacle to one’s success or happiness may lie in one’s own character or the prejudice of someone else. A potential employer may cast a suspicious eye on an individual’s background. A guardian seems reluctant to sponsor any further education for his charge. Other characters here are looking as much for increased self-respect as financial reward or better training. Set in locales as varied as Ontario, Saskatchewan, and Prince Edward Island, the stories of Against the Odds are peopled with orphans, teachers, actors, struggling single-parent families, intransigent relatives. It’s a world, though distant from our own, where Montgomery’s characters have problems similar to ours, and their methods of solving them are not very different from what we would try. In this inspiring collection of stories, Lucy Maud Montgomery has created characters who overcome their hardships by sheer grit, determination, honesty, and creativity. Set in the small villages and towns of Canada, these 18 stories are at once touching and funny. First U.S. publication.
