David was not born a king; he was found in a field. From harp and sling to crown and scandal, "David: The Poet King" follows the most human figure in Scripture with unsentimental reverence and ruthless honesty. D. Michael Gross renders David as shepherd and sovereign, sinner and psalmist, tracing the long arc from obscurity to anointing, triumph to collapse, repentance to enduring legacy. The prose is cinematic and grounded-dust, sweat, blood, music-so the theology never floats; it breathes. You'll hear the strings in Saul's dark court, feel the stone fly in the Valley of Elah, and sit with a broken king who learns to pray again. This is not a sermon dressed as biography. It's a literary portrait where history, psychology, and faith share the same spine. If you want David as a plastic saint, look elsewhere. If you want him as Scripture gives him-complicated, luminous, and bruised-open these pages.
