John E. Leon's Newly Released "The Pursuit of God's Own Heart" is a Striking Character Study of One of the Most Well-Known Figures in the Bible--King David
"A profile study of a worshiper…A look through the lens of David's life, discovering the meaning and purpose of the Christian life" from CFP, author John E. Leon is a remarkable profile studying the inspiring but contradictory Old Testament character of David and how he acquired the distinction of being called a man after God's own heart--and what that may mean for Christians similarly in pursuit of a deeper, more intimate knowledge of God.
MEADVILLE, Pa., July 23, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "The Pursuit of God's Own Heart" is a compelling character study of David in the Old Testament. It is the creation of published author, John E. Leon who has spent over 20 years in ministry, mentoring and encouraging others to become true students and followers of Christ. He has earned a bachelor's of theology and a masters of divinity from The King's University in Texas.
"The Pursuit" generates various questions: How and why would God give such an inscription to a man who would later commit adultery, murder, and deception in a scandalous cover-up? In today's culture, such a story would indeed capture the imagination of any contemporary novelist! Leon adds, "We cannot discover the authenticity of God's statement if we ignore the glaring weaknesses and egregious missteps in David's life. Regardless of those inexplicable facts, God would not have expressed such a characterization were it not true. There are lessons God desires each of us to learn from this man. What does it really mean to have a heart after God? What does that look like? Or, what does it involve and what are the traits of such a heart?
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, John E. Leon's new book is an illuminating discussion that adds to the undying fascination with one of God's most beloved servants and how every believer can continue to learn from David's very human example.
Leon unearths the treasure of the Old Testament from the famous monarch's story to find the deeper message from God that transcends even David to reach all of mankind.
