Synopsis
“There are some things in life that cannot be avoided. You have to confront them and defeat them in order to get to where I am calling you.” The story of David and Goliath is a picture of the “giants” we all face that seek to keep us from God’s best. There is no way to know why God miraculously removes some obstacles out of our path while others require a battle. God can give us victory over anything that stands between us and His best plan for our lives even as He gave David victory over Goliath. If there seems to be something in your life that is keeping you from your God-given dream—this book is for you. If you find that your feelings of insecurity, anxiety, or fear hold you back from stepping out into God’s calling on your life—this book is for you. If you are willing to trust God and face the “giant” that stands between you and God’s plan for your future—read on. In Him, You can overcome giants!Published by Burkhart Books, Bedford, TXwww.BurkhartBooks.com
About the Author
In the mid-1950s, Ron Kramer was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He grew up in a Catholic home but left the church as a teenager. After several years of living away from the Lord, yet searching for truth in his heart, Ron had a life-changing encounter with Jesus Christ midway through his first year of college. Ron soon became a part of an inter-denominational group of high school and college age believers that first met in a person's home. Later, they gathered weekly in a barn that was converted into a place where meetings could be held. Under the covering of mature believers, this group of young converts experienced New Testament-type fellowship, leadership development, and evangelistic growth. Ron finished his undergraduate degree in music, but his passion had changed as a result of his conversion. In 1982, Ron attended Christ for the Nations. He graduated in the spring of 1984. After marrying his wife, Debbie, in February if 1985, Ron worked in the marketplace for 28 years while engaging in lay ministry as a Bible teacher, worship team member and home group leader in non-denominational and Assemblies of God churches in the greater Milwaukee area. He held ministry credentials with the Assemblies of God for about three years. Part of that time, he served as an associate pastor. In 2012, Ron and his wife felt a call to the Dallas/Fort Worth area where they became involved with Gateway Church. He received his Master's Degree in Practical Theology from the King's University in Southlake, Texas. After a few years, Ron joined the staff of Gateway Church serving with the adult education department known as Equip. His ministry responsibilities include teaching, developing curriculum and promoting a transformational discipleship experience for those who attend Gateway. Ron and his wife have been married for over 32 years. Together they had two sons, Jesse and Jordan. Both are now married and serve in full-time ministry. Currently, they have two grandchildren, Molly Rose and Owen Francis. In addition to his love for teaching, Ron has a passion for writing. Though this is his first published work, he has plans for several more works that include other topics from the life of David as well as a devotional.
