A Heart Like His
By Beth Moore
Intimate Reflections on the Life of David

A Heart Like His takes a look at the life of David, which takes us on a study through several books of the Bible. By studying David's life we can discover how we too can be known as a person after God's heart.

David is first mentioned in I Samuel 16 when Samuel is sent to anoint the replacement for Israel's fallen king. At the time of his anointing David was just a shepherd. David was not the first choice of man or even his ow...more

I have never read a book by Beth Moore before but I have heard great things about them and her bible studies. With that being said, A Heart Like His was a very good read. You can tell David is one of Beth's favorite people of the bible by how meticulous she is in her writing . The book does a very good job of detailing his life and experiences and how we can learn from them. I liked how the study started with the prophet Samuel, took us through the mistakes of King Saul and then the life of King...more

Beth Moore's easy conversational tone makes you think that this may be a light read. Don't take this one lightly. She explores the life of David, "a man after God's own heart." New Christians and seasoned Christians alike will find plenty of thought-provoking reflections in this look at the life of King David. This is one to read with journal in hand. Although he lived in ancient times, we find much about David's life to parallel our own. "A Heart Like His" is a great addition to anyone seeking...more

I want to start off by saying that I am a HUGE Beth Moore fan, I have done almost all her Bible studies, but cannot figure out why she re-did this study. I would much rather her work on something new than for her to keep re-doing studies that she has already done over 10 years ago. If you want to re-do the videos as you don’t like your Texas big hair in them, then re-do those, but there is no need to fix something that isn’t broken. Of course, that is my opinion and that is what this is all abou...more

A Heart Like His tells the story of David, and his journey from shepherd, to refugee to King of Israel.
The book does not portray David in all his glory, but shows the ups and downs, goods and bads, and that makes it a good read.

This was my first Beth Moore book. I absolutely fell in love with her heart for the Lord. It made me wonder at the relationship between King David and the Lord. It also started a spark of desire within me to know God in that way, to desire Him more. I highly recommend it.

Wow! I just listened to this on cassette (yes, my car is a 1999 and has a cassette player) and Beth Moore was the reader and author . . . very interesting and powerful book about David . . . I learned much and truly enjoyed what God was teaching me through this book.
Aimee
I read this book devotionally as I read through 1 & 2 Samuel. Beth Moore has a way of bringing scripture to life and it greatly enhanced my understanding of these books. Very practical and easy to understand.

I did this study as a "quiet time" study. I learned a lot of new things about David. I did enjoy the perspective on his life, the well known stories and the not so well known stories.

My Ladies Life Group at church is currently doing this study for the summer. This series is from 1996, so Beth Moore had her big hair back then. I was in the 2nd grade when this series was released, and I had a funny hairstyle back then with big bangs. However, the teaching is very relevant, and David is one of my favorite characters in the Bible. This study is pretty long, but it's so worth doing! I'm sure my gals and I will be changed women after we finish this study, thanks to God's grace and...more

This is a 10 week study about David. Too bad it took me about 55 weeks to complete. I am glad it's done, though!

I think the study itself was quite good, and it's my own fault I didn't get more out of it, since I let myself spread it out too long. I'd wait and try to cram in an entire week's worth of study into a single day. The last 3 weeks of the study or so, I actually read a day's worth of study per day, and that was a lot better. Less intimidating and more enjoyable. I also retained more sin...more

I really liked this book.. even though we all know stories about David and his good, bad, and ugly life. I absolutely fell in love with him because of this book, and I can relate a lot to David I think we all can in some way and this book is really good and showing you who David really is and how he truly was a man after God's own heart, and how much God loved David even through his mistakes and his mess. It helps you to see that God loves you through your mess, and how to have a heart like Davi...more

Lori Beach
One of my absolute favorite bible studies on David.
Kathryn
Just listened to on CD. Short and encouraging.

I really enjoyed this bible study through the life of David. Beth Moore does a great job (as always) of delving deeply into the text of the story and helping readers to understand not only the characters, but the history and the context of the time period. I grew to really admire David because of his passion, courage, and faith and found him to be refreshingly imperfect--a helpful discovery, since I too am flawed. David's honesty with God challenged me as well as encouraged me. Another great stu...more

By far my favorite Beth Moore study.

Great Bible study...

Very touching

Amazing study of David, especially if you can get past her hair and clothes on the videos (and I mean VHS videos!). Even though it was written/filmed in 1996, every study is still totally relevant and makes you think. I'm not a big fan of her "poetry," but I learned a lot.

Whew! An oldie but goodie of Beth Moore's! Loved it, I was the facilitator of our small group and learned so much from the other ladies. I enjoyed this journey of David's life - taught me a lot about myself. Recommend!!
Rosann
I usually really love Beth Moore study's but this one I really struggled to get into. It could have just been the wrong season of life for me to read about and study David.
Christy
I enjoyed going through David's life in the Bible along with this book. Beth Moore, as always, seems to know exactly what to pinpoint for deeper study.
Becky
This Beth Moore study has impressed me! Contrare to popular belief, she is not just for WIC senior group.(women in the church - where i grew up:) )
Sydney Young
Studying any part of the Bible is rewarding and life altering. This study was definitely that for me and so much more.
