DAVID: SHEPHERD, PSALMIST, KING - Meyer captures the very spirit and life of this “man after God’s own heart,” and then practically relates David’s life to the reader’s own: “To bear with unfailing meekness the spiteful attacks of malice and envy; not to be overcome by evil, but to overcome evil with good; to suffer wrong…this is only possible to those in whose breasts the dove-like Spirit has found an abiding-place…and these are they who bear themselves as heroes in the fight.”Are you ready to view Biblical heroes in a new way?
JOSEPH: BELOVED, HATED, EXALTED - Discover the story of Joseph, beloved by Jacob, hated by his brothers, forgotten by his friends, remembered by God, and exalted as ruler of Egypt. Meyer uses Joseph’s life as an illustration of the coming Christ, and makes clear to the reader the import Joseph’s life has on their own.
