In this powerful Homecoming Sunday message, Pastor James Gailliard continues the Real and Raw series with a timely word from 1 Samuel 17, titled "Slingshot Saints."
Through the story of David and Goliath, Pastor Gailliard unpacks five critical truths for every believer facing giants in their life:
- Remember Your Wins (vs. 37) – God has already brought you through. Don’t forget it.
- Refuse What’s Not For You (vs. 38-39) – You don’t need someone else’s armor to fight your battle.
- Retain What Works (vs. 40) – Stick with what God has proven in your life.
- Represent God’s Reputation (vs. 45-47) – Your fight is about more than just you.
- Run Toward Your Giant (vs. 48) – It’s time to stop hiding and start running toward what God has called you to conquer.
This episode will challenge you to face your battles with courage, authenticity, and faith—just like a Slingshot Saint.
