"David was a man after God's own heart x2026;"
"What does it mean to be someone "after God's own heart?" David,
Old Testament shepherd, king, and psalmist, offers an answer in the
shape of his own life.
In many ways he was a most extraordinary man-intelligent,
handsome, abundantly gifted as a poet, musician, warrior, and
administrator. Yet in other ways he was a most ordinary man-often
gripped by destructive passion, rocked by family chaos and personal
tragedy, and motivated by political expediency. How did David
become the national hero of God's chosen people? Why is he the one
character in the Bible described as a "man after God's own heart?"
Chuck Swindoll explores the many facets of David-from his teenaged
years and dysfunctional family life to his overwhelming passion for
God.
David's life offers hope to all of us. It shows how devotion
doesn't mean perfection-that God loves us in spite of our
weaknesses, and can do extraordinary things through ordinary men
and women. David offers an insightful and timeless perspective on
what it means to be truly spiritual, to become like David-men and
women after God's own heart.
"David" is the first of a multi-volume series exploring Great
Lives from the Bible and mining them for the qualities that made
them great. Chuck Swindoll wants to show us that these great men
and women were not great in and of themselves-in fact most of them
were humble and ordinary as you and I. They became great when they
placed themselves at the Lord's disposal, allowing Him to develop
within them the marks of true character: humility, purity,
authenticity, and integrity. To live a life God considers "great"
is within the reach of everyone who submits toHim.
