The Life of King David: How God Works Through Ordinary Outcasts and Extraordinary Sinners
This is a narrative re-telling and fourth-wall-breaking commentary of David's life, from his early days as an unknown nobody to overnight celebrity, and his latter days as a champion of the people to a royal sinner. Each chapter is wrapped in theology, philosophy, application, and the genre thrill of literary fiction. It's David's life as you've never heard it before.
King David is one of the most fascinating figures inthe Bible, if not throughout history. He's the epitome of rags toriches, the sprightly underdog, a simple man in extraordinarycircumstances. Then there's the dark side of David -- his awful affairwith a married woman and the subsequent murder of her husband. But noone ever takes it too hard on David. It's probably because he's not much different than us. We see ourselves in him.
We'll find not only the depth of our own vices and value, but the God who is at the center of this drama, beckoning us home to be the people we were meant to be.
