Sometimes, our greatest battles are not with the "giants"-the external challenges which we all face. Instead, our greatest battles are often within ourselves. Learn how to increase the potential of your ministry, your business, and your life.Shane Stanford and Brad Martin frame their powerful book on one of the most well-known and well-loved stories in history: David and Goliath. We all feel like the seemingly powerless, scrawny boy David sometimes. And we all must face "giants"-those challenges that threaten to overwhelm us in ministry, work-life, and in our personal lives. Five Stones leads readers through a series of clear and compelling lessons, which facilitate the process of self-discovery. The lessons build, one upon the other, arming the reader with practical and powerful tools.

As the reader goes through the process, metaphorically picking up each stone, he/she gains crystal-clear awareness of self-liabilities, opportunities, convictions, and capabilities. Like modern-day Davids, readers will be empowered to conquer challenges, in ministry and in life, with clear-eyed confidence and well-grounded hope.
