David Franklin J Andreen

David's is an amazing life to study. Early on, I'd heard of all the good stuff he did, and that one time he messed up with Bathsheba. But reading his story up close reveals a whole lot more. This guy was a liar, a deceiver, a terrible dad, and he married too many women; he had a temper and pride and fearfulness, besides being an adulterer and a murderer! How does a man like that earn such respect that God would call him "a man after my own heart" (Acts 13:22)? Why would the Lord honor David with being the most notable "type of Christ" in Scripture? How is it that Jesus would allow Himself to be known as "the Son of David"? The fact is, David was a flawed human like the rest of us. For all the strikes against him though, he had this one thing down: David loved the Lord. David didn't do everything right, but like you and I, he wanted to. And when confronted with his sins, David knew how to really repent!In "David: From the Pasture to the Throne", we'll look at David's life verse by verse. This book is over 400 pages because David's life covers so much territory in the Bible. We meet him half way through I Samuel and read about him through the rest of that book, through the entire book of II Samuel, and into the first couple of chapters in I Kings! Join me in this enjoyable study of the life of David. It's guaranteed to will bless your heart, build your faith, and lift you higher in your walk with God!
