Introduction:  I feel like the long-winded preacher who was asked a complicated question and responded “I don’t know where to begin.”  Someone in the audience yelled “How about somewhere near the end.”

Since this is the second in a two-part message we’re starting “somewhere near the end.”  Last week, as we began to look at the account of David and Goliath in I Samuel 17 we noted three characteristics of a giant-killer.  Extra credit to anyone who can name all three! We said that giant-killers do the right thing now.  We said that giant-killers see the reward.  And we said that giant-killers shake off the critics. 

Today I want to look at four more characteristics of a giant-killer and remind everyone that we’re making an application to defeating the giants in our own lives.  Let’s get ready to rumble!
