It took God many years to prepare David in the wilderness as a shephard boy. This is because Giants are never born in a day, but they are made. Our world today is like the time of Samaria. We are in a state of spiritual decadence and despondency, where things have fallen apart. We need to therefore enlist ourselves into God's army as priest and kings (Giants) and reign on Earth.

G. I. Ant takes you into the life of G. I. Ant, Izri, Fezzic, and Monica Butterfly through the imagination. Of course they are not children, but they live in a world like children. Through the lifelike situations, G. I. Ant leaves nothing to the imagination as the situations relate to real life. A very practical application of the Word of God for each situation helps those living and growing as a young Christian. G. I. Ant separates the reality of truth from the imaginational characters that bring the Word of God to life. G. I. Ant begins with the foundational truth of salvation and proceeds to truths to live the Christian life that help fulfill the plans and purposes of God. This real-life approach leaves nothing to the imagination as children grow in their relationship with God. G. I. Ant desires to become a giant for God, and his life gives examples for children to grow to be giants for God by learning and applying biblical truths.

Do you long to be used by God but think you are too ordinary to ever be a "spiritual giant"? It's inspiring to read the stories of God's heroes of the faith. But what do the lives of Peter and Paul, Stephen and Timothy, Mary and Joseph, and other early believers teach us about how we, too, can make a powerful and lasting impact for Christ and His kingdom? Dr. French B. Harmon, longtime pastor and president of the Kentucky Baptist Foundation, leads readers on a journey through the lives of some of the New Testament's biggest names. In this biblically grounded volume, Dr. Harmon will guide you to deeper understanding of how to: Allow God to be the captain of your life by obeying His daily guidance. Overcome failure and not let past mistakes define your future ministry. Use your unique personality and strengths to build Christ's church. Be the kind of parent or mentor who will prepare the next generation to follow the Lord. Recommit yourself to a life of passionate evangelism and personal excellence. At the end of each chapter, application-focused questions and action steps will help you take the wisdom of these ordinary giants and integrate it into your own life. Though separated from us by time and culture, the Bible's giants of the faith aren't really that much different from us in their struggles and triumphs. God's Ordinary Giants will challenge you, too, to become a force for God's kingdom in this generation--and impact those who will come after you!

Probably one of the most well- known characters in the Bible is David. He grew up a shepherd boy and defeated a giant named Goliath and then went on to be King of Israel. While king, David made some serious mistakes. However, David didn't try to place the blame on other people. He took responsibility and shouldered the blame himself. By doing this, he was described by God as a "man after His own heart." In this book, you will learn that God has a good plan for every individual. But sometimes you can thwart that plan by your own desire to fulfill certain desires and dreams but God's grace can bring you back to the plan that God has for you. Even though David made some mistakes and even cost people their lives, he repented and was able to turn the direction of those mistakes to want to serve the Lord. God's grace is evident through the entire life of David. Rather than having to go through your own hard knocks, the author encourages the reader to learn from these life lessons from David
