As someone who has always wanted to study God's Word, but needs an effective tool for doing so, Beth Moore provides that for me in this study of the life of King David. This is my second of her studies, and I'm already excited about the next one. Thank you, Beth, for using your gift of speaking to the hearts of women in such a unique and challenging way.

A sister in the congregation of the church I attend loaned me this book to read, and I couldn't put it down. David is one of my favorite people in the bible, and apparently the author's as well. She did a very thorough breakdown of 1st and 2nd Samuel, concerning David's life and it made you feel that you are actually there in the story. I highly recommend this as it will make an excellent addition to your book collection.

A few years ago the women's Bible study in my church went through the video version of "A Heart Like His." I heard glowing reviews from one lady after another, speaking of how pertinent and powerful the material was. Unfortunately, it was then geared exclusively to women, so I never watched the videos myself.
With the memory of those glowing reviews still fresh in mind, I decided to purchase the book version and see for myself if Beth Moore's teaching lived up to its reputation. I was certainly NOT disappointed. This book is an outstanding treatment of the triumphs and the tragedies of Israel's most famous king.
Moore takes practically every significant incident from David's life and applies the spiritual principles to life today. Through her exposition here, the reader gets to know David much better, and learns why he has been called "a man after God's own heart." The author's treatment is chronological, starting from the events surrounding David's emergence on the Biblical scene as a young boy to the transfer of his throne as an old man to his son Solomon.
I recommend this book very highly to anyone wanting to gain a better understanding of the life of King David. The book is very easy reading, yet is profound in its insights. Men and women, clergy and laity alike will benefit from Moore's painstakingly thorough work.
