Download or read book Book of David written by David Steinberg and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-06-12 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From award-winning comedian, director, writer, and producer David Steinberg comes the totally original, utterly blasphemous, and hysterically funny memoir of a young man who emerged from a traditional Jewish childhood to become an international star—all because, it seems, he kept God in stitches. David Steinberg was raised in Winnipeg, Canada, by parents who expected little from him. And no wonder. Instead of studying Talmud in order to become a rabbi, he chose to major in Martin and Lewis with a minor in basketball. As David imagines the story of his life (since his success otherwise makes no sense), God one day spotted him on the playground and decided that this young man with no ambition could go far with His help. Sure enough, God soon had David on network TV and Broadway, and selling out nightclubs across the country—as well as being pursued by hot starlets. The Book of David is David Steinberg's hilarious trip down memory lane, assuming that the lane has a biblical address. This wild riff on the Old Testament is guaranteed laughter.

Download or read book The Life of David Through His Psalms written by Carla McClafferty and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life of David Through His Psalms: Comfort from The Shepherd by Carla Killough McClafferty is a Bible study designed to guide you to find comfort in the Lord. We all need comfort in our lives, and some times more than others. Whether you are dealing with the usual ups and downs of life, or facing life-changing circumstances, this Bible study will point you to the Lord of all comfort. This ten-week personal workbook is divided into a five day a week plan. It is based on the life of David up to the time he becomes King. This study is a fresh take on the life of David and follows the man after God's own heart as he faces times of crisis in his life. David wrote many of his most well known Psalms during periods of time when wave after wave of trouble crashed over him. Even when David's life was in shambles, David sought--and found--comfort from the Lord. Turn back the years to the time of David and learn from him how to find comfort in the Lord even in the worst of circumstances. The types of problems we face today are not the same as David's, but the feelings of fear, loss, betrayal, grief, despair, anger, bitterness, and doubt are the same. David's words are as relevant today as they were when written centuries ago. This study is for those who need comfort in their own lives, or for those who want to know how to share the comfort of the Lord with others. Join author Carla Killough McClafferty in this helpful Bible study as she shares some of her own struggles in the journey to find comfort in the midst of despair. Highlights: * Scripture centered study that connects the events of David's life with the Psalms he wrote about those events.* A Bible study that puts the life and times of David in historical context, along with others including Samuel the Prophet, King Saul and Jonathan.* At the end of each week, the fifth day is about how that week's lesson connects with other parts of the Bible. For example, week two includes how David defeats Goliath. The questions for day five of that week leads participants to learn about other giants in the Bible. Carla Killough McClafferty's book FORGIVING GOD: A WOMAN'S STRUGGLE TO UNDERSTAND WHEN GOD ANSWERS NO is referenced in this Bible study.

Download or read book Open and Unafraid written by W. David O. Taylor and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A book you will want to read and read again." -- Eugene Peterson Afterword by Bono. How can we find a more transparent, resilient, and fearless life of faith? The book of Psalms has been central to God's people for millennia, across all walks of life and cultural contexts. In reading it, we discover that we are never alone in our joys, sorrows, angers, doubts, praises, or thanksgivings. In it, we learn about prayer and poetry, honesty and community, justice and enemies, life and death, nations and creation. Open and Unafraid shows us how to read the psalms in a fresh, life-giving way, and so access the bottomless resources for life that they provide. "David Taylor’s take is 'open and unafraid' alright. He really goes there, exposing himself before God in the most beautiful way. He might have called the book Naked, because if you don’t find your own self feeling a little exposed here, it might be time to take some armor off." -- Bono, from the Afterword "A book that you will want to read and read again, and yet again, in order to discover the wisdom of the Psalms that shows us how to walk in the life-giving way of Jesus." -- Eugene Peterson, from the Foreword "A winsome, accessible entry into the Book of Psalms…Connects the poetry of the psalms to real-life wonders and struggles." -- Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary "Taylor reads these biblical prayers with Dr. Seuss, rappers, and other poets, along with theologians and the daily news....Guides readers in tracing out patterns of holy speech that have the potential for healing our hearts and our communities." -- Ellen F. Davis, Duke Divinity School "I have always loved the psalms--for their defiant devotion, their deep joy, and their brutal yet beautiful honesty. And after reading this fantastic book about them, I love them even more." -- Matt Redman, worship leader and song writer "In these fraught and fearsome days, we need the psalms more than ever. And we need more faithful artists and thinkers like David Taylor to mine the infinite gifts the psalms offer across the ages." -- Karen Swallow Prior, author of Fierce Convictions

Download or read book The Life Of David written by Arthur Pink and published by Darolt Books. This book was released on 2020-01-25 with total page 869 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life Of David is a message of meditation based on the Bible and written by Arthur Walkington Pink was born in Nottingham, England, to a corn merchant, a devout non-conformist of uncertain denomination, though probably a Congregationalist. Otherwise, almost nothing is known of Pink's childhood or education except that he had some ability and training in music. As a young man, Pink joined the Theosophical Society and apparently rose to enough prominence within its ranks that Annie Besant, its head, offered to admit him to its leadership circle. In 1908 he renounced Theosophy for evangelical Christianity. Desiring to become a minister but unwilling to attend a liberal theological college in England, Pink very briefly studied at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago in 1910 before taking the pastorate of the Congregational church in Silverton, Colorado. In 1912 Pink left Silverton, probably for California, and then took a joint pastorate of churches in rural Burkesville and Albany, Kentucky. In 1916, he married Vera E. Russell (1893–1962), who had been reared in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Pink's next pastorate seems to have been in Scottsville. Then the newlyweds moved in 1917 to Spartanburg, South Carolina, where Pink became pastor of Northside Baptist Church. By this time Pink had become acquainted with prominent dispensationalist Fundamentalists, such as Harry Ironside and Arno C. Gaebelein, and his first two books, published in 1917 and 1918, were in agreement with that theological position. Yet Pink's views were changing, and during these years he also wrote the first edition of The Sovereignty of God (1918), which argued that God did not love sinners and had deliberately created "unto damnation" those who would not accept Christ. Whether because of his Calvinistic views, his nearly incredible studiousness, his weakened health, or his lack of sociability, Pink left Spartanburg in 1919 believing that God would "have me give myself to writing." But Pink then seems next to have taught the Bible with some success in California for a tent evangelist named Thompson while continuing his intense study of Puritan writings.

Download or read book The Life Psalms of David written by Gail Bones and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both a mighty warrior and a skillful poet-musician, King David wrote almost half the book of Psalms, the worship manual that has given expression to the praises and laments of God's people since they were written. Although David is described in the Bible as "? a man after God's own heart," Scripture does not conceal the fact that he was deeply flawed and sinful. In this 16-week study, we'll take an in-depth look at the Old Testament record of David's life along with the corresponding Psalms he wrote as he experienced life's trials and sorrows, defeats and victories. We will learn from his example how to be both spiritual warriors and faithful worshippers of the Living God.
Download or read book David and the Psalms written by Michael Ruszala and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People are fascinated by the concept of royalty. The notion stirs up sentiments of love, admiration, and hatred. We see ourselves in them, and yet we criticize them at times with indignation. While most monarchies today have been put aside or at least limited in their power, the concept of royalty cannot be erased from human consciousness. In the words of Jesus, Christians pray, "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." The ultimate and most perfect monarchy is that of God himself, the sovereign of all creation. Through David and the story of the kingship, God taught us about his governance of the world and of his people. David was only human and at times the worthy subject of both praise and severe criticism. But in his relationship with God, we find a model for the people both then and today: suppleness to God's will; wholehearted pursuit of righteousness; sincere repentance from sin; mercy for others; and true worship of God, who alone is worthy.
