GRAND RAPIDS, MI — These challenging and historic times of grief and hardship weigh heavy as giant struggles in people’s lives the world over. Hoping to bring a biblical perspective to these crises and personal strife, Bible Gateway, the most visited Christian website in the world, will host the six-week free Facing Your Giants Online Bible Study June 15–July 27, 2020 with pastor and bestselling author Max Lucado teaching Bible lessons from the life of David facing Goliath in the book of 1 Samuel. Free registration for the event is at https://bg4.me/3dLCaTz.

In the series, Lucado teaches the five ways God equips people to face the stifling giants in their lives. Like David gathering five stones to prepare to slay his Goliath, so God gives us 5 ‘stones’ to face our giants, according to Lucado. Participants in the series will learn how Past, Priority, Prayer, Passion, and Persistence work in their circumstances to live a peace-filled life centered on God.

Watch a video of Lucado introducing the online study.

Students of this series will gain automatic free access to Lucado’s online video presentation, a private online study community, and exclusive bonus content, including a digital download of the first chapter of the book Facing Your Giants: God Still Does the Impossible, printable art, and a character profile on King David. The teaching videos will be available for free online June 15 through July 27.

“The free Facing Your Giants Online Bible Study is another way Bible Gateway is equipping people to read and understand the Bible, wherever they are,” says Jonathan Petersen, content manager, Bible Gateway.
