He Used A Stone by Andrew Mullek
129 pages, 1 of 1 reviews are 5-star, Lending Enabled
At the heart of one of the most well known (even clichéd) stories of all time lies a subtle and life changing truth. God used a stone in the hand of a boy. That God used a stone means He can use us too.
If we have to be honest we are losing to life. Sure, we pretend that things are fine, but we know there is more. The lack of life in so many churches confirms this unspoken truth. To make matters worse, we are in bound by the giants that surround us. While we sing songs of victory on Sunday, Monday brings bondage.
The story of David is the story of each of us. For too long church as we know it has created a structure that undermines our identity in God. We have abdicated who we are as priests of the living God and have often forfeited a victorious life. As we learn what made David different, we too will be made different. We’ll become a stone in the hand of a victorious God.

“Walking the Walk: A FaithFashionista Guide to Godly Friendship” is a six-week Bible study which focuses on building mutually satisfying friendships based on Biblical truths.
The lessons are designed around the lives of six women found in the Bible: Rahab, Orpah, Esther, Deborah, Hannah, and Tabitha. Taken in part, these women each have amazing life stories; however, when seen as a whole, they showcase the entire spiritual journey that Christian women take on the road to salvation and service. Their stories are a transformation from reviled sinner to beloved, devoted servant of Christ.
Over the course of the study, as you take the stories of these women into your hearts and minds, it is the author’s hope that you will find aspects of their lives which parallel your own…that through the stories, as recorded in the divine Word of God, you can uncover a better way to live. This study will help you be a better friend and take you down a path of spiritual growth. It is a “walk in the shoes” of some amazing women and will influence your personal walk with Christ and overflow into the lives of your family and friends. So…go ahead and take that walk!
