Goliath (theology)

Goliath is a giant in the old biblical story "David and Goliath". In the story, the young sheperd David is the only one brave enough to challenge Goliath. Because his faith in God was great, he was able to slay Goliath with only a sling (a leather or cloth strip used to hurl pebbles), and then proceeded to chop of Goliath's head.
