A Man After God's Own Heart: Based on the Life of David

David was a man after God's own heart . . .

What does it mean to be someone "after God's own heart?" David, King, psalmist and shepherd, gives us a picture with his own life.

In many ways he is an extraordinary role model, a man who was fully human but exceeded expectations and pointed others towards God. While the other side of David is most ordinary showing a life filled with destruction, chaos, tragedy and his personal struggle with sin. How then 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?" David's life offers hope to all of us. It shows that God can do extraordinary things through ordinary men and women. And David offers an insightful perspective on what it means to be truly a man, to become like David―men after God's own heart.

This interactive study features eight weeks of individual study materials with a leader's guide and suggested teaching plans at the back of the book.
