How can we build and maintain confident faith in God in a world where faith is increasingly seen as marginal, embarrassing or even dangerous? Confidence lies at the heart of society, determining the success or failure of the economy, the government, companies, schools, churches and, of course, individuals. As Christians, we are called to proclaim our faith in God, but how can we build and maintain this confidence in an increasingly secularised culture where such faith is often seen as marginal, embarrassing or even downright dangerous? Using the story of David and Goliath, Andrew Watson takes a narrative theology approach to show how the Lord can indeed be our confidence, whatever the odds. He explores how God can develop a proper self-confidence within individuals and his Church, revealing the gospel through transforming words and transformed lives. He considers, too, how we can confidently tackle the challenges of day-to-day living, whether a difficult work situation or family relationship, or simply anxiety about the future. The book includes a study guide and is ideal as a whole church course on the subject of confidence. 'If there is a quality that needs restoring to the church right now it is a faith-filled confidence in God. This timely and inspiring book is a prophetic call to rise up with a Davidic new boldness in the person and power of the living God. I highly recommend it' - Mark Stibbe, Leader of The Father's House 'A marvellously balanced, thought-provoking and inspiring account of how it is still possible to believe with confidence in a God who is already at work in his world, and who is longing to free us from fear, unbelief, and misconceptions to become the world-changing church that we are called to be.' - John Coles, Director of New Wine
