The Songs of a Warrior

While staying faithful to the Bible plotline, Katy Morgan draws out the hopes, the fears, the belief and the unbelief all used by God to bring David to the throne. | The retelling of the biblical narrative really draws you into the action and tension of the story and, importantly, excites your curiosity to read the pages of the Bible itself. | Katy brings to life an extraordinary biblical story so that young people feel the power of God to work in our ordinary lives to achieve his amazing purposes. | Far too many people believe the Old Testament is largely irrelevant. Katy Morgan shows us that it is bursting with promise, feasting and song. Her vivid writing, combined with her deep knowledge of the ancient world, plunges us into this unfolding drama. The heartbeat of this book is a longing for its readers to find confidence in the then-coming-now-arrived King of Israel. Katy is a gifted storyteller—the pacing will keep younger readers engaged while the detail will help older readers reflect. | Katy Morgan is a Senior Editor at The Good Book Company and the award-winning author of The Songs of a Warrior and The Promise and the Light.
