Synopses & Reviews
Many Christians today are caught in the same trap as their unchurched peers-reacting to decisions and events rather than understanding how life's seasons tie together and what God is looking for in each. For those seeking a sharper vision of God's plan for them, the life of King David presents a portrait of an imperfect yet godly leader-a person who stumbled and soared through seven interwoven seasons of life. Retired pastor and businessman Thomas A. Vaughn demonstrates how David allowed God to help him build a foundation for life in his boyhood season. Vaughn then takes readers into David's times of battle, wilderness, blessings, and even backslidings, before exploring how the man after God's own heart found forgiveness and left a formidable legacy. Readers will be encouraged to do the same with this seamless and discerning book.
Synopsis
Have you ever been baffled by unexpected circumstances-good or bad? Sometimes Christians feel that God is far away or uninvolved in day-to-day events. Author Thomas A. Vaughn's questions of his own life led to an in-depth study of the most detailed personal story in Scripture-the life of King David. What he found there amazed him: David experienced seven specific stages in his life, each with a divine purpose. What's more, Vaughn realized that each one of us journeys through those same spiritual stages. You are in one of them right now! Whether God is working to bring you out of complacency or preparing you for some unique position, you can know that He has brought you to this place. He will delight in showing you His good plan.
