King David and his people lived broken, messy, and yet meaningful lives. Just like you.
In these 30 stories from 1 & 2 Samuel, Stephen Morefield explores the life of King David through the eyes of God's people. Both disappointment and hope will be found. And, while King David can't give us everything we need, he will point clearly to the One who can.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
"Like most church kids, I grew up believing the Bible was a book full of heroes to emulate, and David stood tall above them all. The older I got, the less heroic the heroes looked. They had seeds of greatness buried in the clay of sin. How could it grow? When would the harvest come? Why do we have these stories of men who seemed great, but instead were greatly broken? Pastor Stephen's meditations shine a clear light on King David's life. After you read this, you'll know yourself, David, and the Only True Hero more deeply. David's life offers us many lessons to live in this truth: there is only one pathway to genuine transformation."
-Mike Wright, Pastor, Littleton Christian Church; Moderator, Evangelical Presbyterian Church Presbytery of the West. Littleton, CO.
"For two consecutive summers our church lived in the books of 1 and 2 Samuel as we preached through them each Sunday. They were rich sermons, but in many ways they were also jarring sermons, for both the one in the pulpit and those in the pews. We saw heroes with warts as big as their noses and a king whose relationship with God was a rollercoaster-faithful now unfaithful, rejoicing now crushed, wise now fool-ish. Yet behind these ups and downs, we also saw what God wants us to see: the constancy of his grace. I wish Stephen's book-with his relentless focus on the true Hero-were published sooner so I could have shared it with our congregation."
-Benjamin Vrbicek, Teaching Pastor, Community Evangelical Free Church; Co-Author of More People to Love. Harrisburg, PA.
"Pastor Stephen loves the gracious gospel of Jesus, and he combines this love with a pastor's heart for seeing ordinary people take hold of this grace in their lives. Reading Fierce Grace is an opportunity to learn these loves from a brother and pastor who, like King David, has tasted and seen the goodness of the God of grace."
-David Hoffelmeyer, Pastor, Trinity Presbyterian Church. Sparta, IL.
"Saints that daily deal with sin: the life of King David shows us the highs and lows of human leadership. We know him as a man of lust, adultery, and deceit, yet a man of great devotion and love for God. Taken from the life of David, Fierce Grace will be a strong and biblically trustworthy reminder that Jesus is the true hero of every story and the center of our daily walk. This is the kind of book that allows us to take an honest look at ourselves, our opportunities, and life struggles while encouraging us to see God's gospel as the sure foundation for every season."
-Darren Casper, Executive Director, Plant Midwest. St. Louis, MO.
"The church desperately needs to be bathed in God's favor drawn from all of Scripture. Read for a greater treasure of grace from God's story. Read for walking out the gospel every step of your journey. Read for sweeter and deeper fellowship with Jesus. Explore the fierceness of God's grace in 1 and 2 Samuel with Stephen."
Gabe Reed, Lead Pastor, Calvary Summitview Church. Denver, CO.
"Pastor Stephen is spiritually mature beyond his years and is committed to the truth of the Word. His teaching brings clarity to Scripture and is applicable to everyday life."
