A concise, fascinating biography of the life of David which utilizes the psalms from his heart. Deep historical and geographical background behind events which shaped David's life and his instructional inspiration that lives on through his writing. The readers are drawn in by the probing questions and suggested research in each chapter, along with a guide to writing their own "songs in the night." Admire the great leader and man of God, but also his humanity and frailty. It is impossible to ignore our own faults as his are so readily admitted and exposed. A great Bible study. Maps included.
