Media Reviews
The life of David immerses us in the stuff of humanity - the everyday grit and glory that we all encounter simply by walking out the door each morning. Becky Pippert shows us that this is the raw material that God uses to shape a holy life in us. And as witness and participant she convinces us. EUGENE H. PETERSON, translator of The Message These insightful studies of faith, faithfulness and faithlessness, drawn from David's career, deservedly stick in the mind. Not all books are worth reading, but this one is. J. I. PACKER, author of Knowing God Pippert writes of David, but not as though he were several thousand years removed from her. Their humanity connects, and it is for this reason she understands the way Christian virtue is developed in our souls and vices rooted out. LEANNE PAYNE, director of Pastoral Care Ministries
