Learn to slay the giants in your life!

Run Toward Your Goliaths is about conquering strongholds and breaking barriers.

In this book, you’ll read personal testimonies of a married couple that faced what seemed to be insurmountable challenges and used their faith in God and commitment to each other to overcome the many giants they faced over 40 years. You will witness the power of prayer, faithfulness, love, commitment, grit, and optimism. Each chapter contains “five smooth stones” that readers can apply to conquer the giants in their life.

If you are facing strongholds and searching for encouragement, this book offers a map to the faith journey, one full of giants and sheer miracles. The story is built on four pillars: (1) Build your Foundation, (2) Find your Rhythm, (3) Dare to Believe, and (4) Leave a Legacy for others to be encouraged. The book also contains original music lyrics to reinforce the key concepts in the chapters.

Just as David faced Goliath confidently, knowing God was on his side, you also can face your giants, knowing that you already hold the keys to victory.

Are you facing a Goliath?

Even if no giant is threatening you today, you can bet that one is coming for you tomorrow. Giants may intimidate you, but they do not have to defeat you. You can overcome them!

In the Bible, David defeated the giant Goliath with a sling, five smooth stones, and the Spirit of the Lord inside him. What would it take for you to slay the giants in your life?

Eli Jones knows a thing or two about defeating giants. He’s faced them personally, professionally, and spiritually. And he’s learned the keys to defeating his adversaries.

Now, in the Study Guide for Run Toward Your Goliaths, Eli draws from his life experiences, his academic research, and his corporate leadership roles to create a cohesive guide to help you understand yourself, your enemy, your resources, and your God.

Navigating the Path Forward: Transforming DEI Challenges into Opportunities

The corporate landscape finds itself at a crossroads, caught between the pressing demands of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives and the potential pitfalls that accompany them. The pressure to address DEI issues looms large, driven not only by employee expectations but also by the watchful eyes of shareholders and their ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) requirements. However, the path toward effective DEI implementation is riddled with complexities and diverse outcomes.

From mere checkbox exercises in training programs that drain organizational energy to the unintended consequence of increased workplace divisiveness, DEI efforts have shown a range of results. These initiatives have recently introduced unprecedented risks to revenue, profitability, and company valuations. In this challenging landscape, embracing a new approach that aligns with the times is crucial.
