Who's Gonna Fight? 1 Samuel 17:42-47 10-20-1996

Tell the story of armies on oposing hills......no champion to fight the giant.
David shows up.....even the King mocks him

Challenge answered by David.
read verses 1 Samuel 17:42-47

Not by swords/shields, but by desire, and power of God, David prevailed

What are the guys thinking?

volunteer vs covenant community
Church may feel like a volunteer community sometimes
new brochure, new church

but it is not....and it operates at it's best when everyone remembers that
I have seen you rise to the challenge
work days
Kraatz lost job
Mike David in Houston
Pam Armstrongs needs
just last week.....{Harding funeral}

there will be more giants in the future....
the building program

If a real giant showed up....he would be mauled...maimed

In the giant sized challenges of life....who is gonna fight
do not sit back and wait for some champion to step up
Take a spiritual interest in the life and mission of your church
Our champion is already here....Jesus Christ
Let us rise up to the challenges of today....nd go forth in the name of the Lord
