The Life of David Through His Psalms: Comfort from The Shepherd - Softcover

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.
