Through an expertly paced narrative, Swindoll paints a rich portrait of David's life, capturing his strengths and flaws with equal clarity. This book sheds light on David's spectacular victories and heart-wrenching failures, offering readers valuable lessons on resilience, faith, and personal growth.
How did David become the national hero of God's chosen people? Why is he the one character in the Bible described as "a man after God's own heart?" Man of Valor, Man of Grace by Chuck Swindoll doesn't just tell you about David; he invites you to walk alongside him.

From his heroic youth onward through his greatly accomplished decades-long kingship, with continual struggles always along the way—from extreme highs to extreme lows—the continual dramatic highlights in David’s life are shown here with keen perception.

David very early experienced spectacular victories and unprecedented popularity, yet he also quickly became a fugitive from authorities for at least a dozen years of his early adult life—then, years later, was forced on the run again by his own son. Tragedy stalked this incredibly gifted man in so many ways—but he was teachable, and his virtues intensified.

How This Book Will Transform Your Understanding

Curated from Swindoll's Bible Commentary on the life of David, Man of Valor, Man of Grace illustrates David's experiences to help you weather your own storms—be they self-inflicted or brought on by others—and emerge stronger, more focused, and aligned with what truly matters.



Uncover David's Human Side: Learn how David managed life's challenges and used them to grow closer to God.
Gain Practical Insights: Each page is filled with guidance that you can apply to your daily life.
Connect with David as Never Before: Understand his struggles and triumphs in a way that resonates deeply with your spiritual journey.

For David, looking up to the living God became the most consistent instinct of his soul. Truly a man after God’s heart, he knew how to bring his inner being back into harmony with God after straying into disobedience. And then the highest spiritual reality returned: "What was important to God was important to David; what burdened God also burdened David."

Man of Valor, Man of Grace objectively explores what Swindoll sees as the three great failures in David's adulthood, with their heartbreaking consequences—while also showing David to be the best example in Scripture of someone riding out the storms of life. David was gripped by destructive passion, rocked by family chaos and personal tragedy, and motivated by political expediency. Like all of us, David was far from perfect, but Swindoll teaches us that David had the chance to become great when he placed himself at the Lord's disposal.

David was a man endowed by God to an amazing extent with passion, strength, integrity, and humility—an unforgettable personality whose life offers endless lessons for people in all ages. Elevate your understanding of one of the Bible’s most dynamic figures. This book is a treasure trove of wisdom waiting to be uncovered.

Pastor Charles R. Swindoll has devoted his life to the accurate, practical teaching and application of God’s Word. Since 1998, he has served as the founding pastor-teacher of Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco, Texas, but Chuck’s listening audience extends beyond a local church body. As a leading program in Christian broadcasting since 1979, Insight for Living airs around the world. Chuck’s leadership as president and now chancellor emeritus at Dallas Theological Seminary has helped prepare and equip a new generation of men and women for ministry.
