In this personal or small group study you will discover David - a man who was a warrior, a king, a friend, a father, and a husband. You'll also find a man who was afraid, who fled from his enemies, who once feigned madness and who could not confront his own son.Yet, scripture tells us that David was a man after God's own heart. Why? How did this man capture the heart of God? What made him unique?We're going to look at several aspects of David's life, from his anointing by God to his last days as king. In each chapter of this journal guide we will focus on different aspects of David's life and the reasons why he was called a man after God's own heart. At times it will be a bumpy ride, but it will be worthwhile because by learning about David we can examine our own lives and apply God's truth to them.
