거인을 죽이려면...
아래 주말의 번역놀이에 자그마치 2분이나 올려 주셨는데, 감사합니다. 오히려 제가 시간이 없어서 빨리 관련 포스팅을 하지 못하네요… 가능한 한 빨리 정리해서 올리겠습니다. (내일이나 모레쯤 :)

You will find that your confidence has a contagious quality. It will spread throughout your sphere of influence. The Bible provides some interesting examples of “confidence contagion.” For instance, how many giant-killers were in Saul’s army? None. When Goliath defied the armies of God, they quaked with fear (1 Sam. 17:11). David, who came to bring food to his brothers, sized up the situation, went out in faith, and killed the giant. After David the giant-killer became king, how many giant-killers arose in Israel? Quite a few. They were almost a common commodity in the army under David’s leadership…
Why do you suppose there were no giant-killers in Saul’s army? Surely one reason is that Saul himself was not a giant-killer. However, under David’s leadership they were numerous, because David was a giant-killer. This illustrates a tremendous principle of leadership, a principle which runs throughout the Bible – it takes one to make one! When you develop confidence, those around you – friends, family, and associates – will increase in their own confidence levels. Confidence breeds confidence. (Be a People Person, pp. 48 – 49)
