About this Item

Paperback. Who are your role models? The world desperately needs role models today—people who are fully human yet who exceed human expectations and point others toward God. David is such a role model. His struggles with sin are infamous, and the Psalms reveal his anguish and doubts. Yet he is also described as "a man after God's own heart"—the champion of Israel. In this study guide, Jack Kuhatschek introduces you to David the servant and the leader, the sinner and the redeemed, the man and the instrument of God's creative purposes. As you explore David's tumultous story, you too will discover what it means to have a passionate heart for God. Now available in IVP's revised LifeGuide Bible Study format, David features questions for starting group discussions and for personal reflection, as well as a new "Now or Later" section following each session. We're updating and revising our bestselling LifeGuides to make them even more effective for small group Bible study! New features of the revised LifeGuides include special options for group activities, additional questions for personal reflection, a "Now or Later" section with practical follow-up activities for use after the study or between sessions, expanded and improved leaders' notes and an attractive, redesigned format for easier reading.

In addition, more existing volumes will be revised every year to ensure that all our LifeGuides continue to be effective Bible study resources for the twenty-first century. We desperately need role models today who allow us to be fully human yet inspire us to look beyond our weaknesses to God. David is such a person. His struggles with sin are infamous, and the Psalms reveal his anguish and doubts. Yet he is also described as "a man after God's own heart" — the champion of Israel. As you explore the life of David, find out what it means to have a passionate heart for God. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
