Paperback. Zustand: New. ""David""--a name mentioned nearly a thousand times in the Bible! Shepherd boy, musician, singer-songwriter, prophet and king (and part-time priest!), husband and father, and a God-gifted genius at close, hand-to-hand combat. An extraordinary man. This close reading of the life of David--all the way from where teenage David is first introduced (1 Sam 16) to his death (1 Kgs 2)--gives an opportunity to see the wonderful, the awful, and the (shockingly) ugly elements of his life. There are some difficult texts and difficult lessons. Significant matters arise, such as the nature of prayer, the importance of forgiveness, abuse, the nature of leadership, death and enemies, understanding patriarchy in biblical texts, spiritual gifts, and evil spirits. Readers will discover that these texts speak loudly and clearly to the issues of our day. Beginning with the Former Prophets (1 and 2 Samuel, 1 Kings) for the narrator's point of view, this book also examines the Psalms to give an understanding of what was happening for David on the inside. Undertaken as a devotional exercise, the aim of these studies is always that of seeing Jesus more clearly and living more securely in the shadow of his wing.

That series of sermons was great, but this book is even better! It is detailed, coherent, and full of precious insights that will have you pondering about your own life as you seek to walk with the one who is Lord. Take your time to savor this carefully drafted book as it explores what true kingship is about."--Osvaldo P. Almeida, professor of psychiatry, University of Western Australia"This much-needed spirituality of everyday life tells how God relates to our work, relationships, sexuality, friendships, leadership, and our troubles--best gained through a well-told story. And what better story than that of King David, who was a layman and not a priest. David found strength in God and dealt directly with God not just in the quiet time but in the thick of life--a delightful contrast with religious piety. Thank you Steven Daly!"--R. Paul Stevens, professor emeritus of marketplace theology, Regent College"Books on Bible characters are not as popular as they were in the past. This life of David is a fine example of such a book. Steven Daly is carefully attentive to the Bible text in its historical and theological context, does not make up what the Bible does not tell us, is reflective, thoughtful, and sensitive in his application, and helps us see how the text points forward to the Lord Jesus. Wonderful!"--Peter Adam, vicar emeritus, St. Jude's CarltonABOUT THE AUTHORSteven E. J. Daly is a priest in the Anglican Church of Australia. Coming to faith in Christ in his mid-twenties--while a PhD student in biochemistry--he was ordained some thirteen years later after studies in Canada and Australia.…
