God called David a "man after my own heart." But read his story and you might wonder what God saw in him. The fellow fell as often as he stood; stumbled as often as he conquered. A man after God's own heart? That God saw him as such gives hope to us all. In his good moments, no one was better. When David focused on God...giants tumbled. But in his bad moments, could one be worse? When he focused on giants...he stumbled. We need David's story because giants still roam in our world. And like David we too have a checkered heart. In this penetrating study of the life of David, Max Lucado empowers us with timeless truths that will allow us to defeat the giants in our life. We learn what David learned. And we are encouraged to do what David did. We pick up five stones, load our sling, lift our eyes and take aim. And the God who made a miracle out of David and his checkered heart stands ready to make one out of us.
