Most of us don't know much about David except his killing of Goliath as a youth and his adultery with Bathsheba as a middle-aged man, but there's much more to discover. His house would be cursed by violence and death, not only by his baby dying, but the death of Ammon, Absalom, and Adonijah. This book reveals David's family is one where things aren't normal. Readers will discover that amidst the sunshine are many dark shadows, places where David is a frightened fugitive, a bloody warrior, an undisciplined father, an Eastern Ruler, an adulterer, and polygamist, and even a murderer! The author explains why David's family rejected him and how he grew up despised, shunned, and looked upon as an outcast, treated with scorn and derision. Finally, this book explains what it means to be someone "after God's own heart." While David was a most extraordinary man, 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. Dive into the book to learn how David's life offers hope to us all.
