Learning from David

King David was one of the most diverse figures of the Bible, whose various experiences of life and faith are described in great detail within Scripture.

Youngest son of his father, shepherd, adviser to the king, musician, warrior, fugitive, captain of a militia, despised leader, writer, king of Israel, adulterer, murderer, man of war, pursued by his own son, visionary of the first Temple of Solomon, predecessor of the Lord Jesus... a life of every color and shade, a man that was very flawed and at the same time, "according to the heart of God."

Studying David's life of ups and downs is a journey full of lessons, adventures and discoveries, after which you will not be the same person. In following the course of David’s life, you'll find yourself on the path of a man who knew God intimately. Following his story will bring you closer to God.

I would like to invite you to do just that. Seize this opportunity and allow your imagination to go back to the past and enrich your faith.

Let's start reading the story of David today. It begins in chapter 16 of 1 Samuel, continues through the rest of 1 Samuel, all of 2 Samuel, until David’s death in 1 Kings 2.

Let's read, meditate and learn from this amazing story. It would be great if you left your comments here and shared the lessons you discover along the way, so we can all be blessed.

Are you up for it?
