Synopsis

Born to serve, destined to lead…Twelve-year-old David, a skilled musician and bold risk-taker, tends his flocks in a rural backwater of ancient Samaria, eager to prove himself and join his brothers on the battlefield. A youngest son who would never have a household of his own, no one is more shocked than David when a powerful prophet summons him for a cryptic blessing, hinting that he--and not his brothers--is destined for greatness. So begins David's epic adventure. As the nation readies for war against an age-old enemy, David secretly trains as a soldier. He soon comes face to face with a terrifying foe and ultimately finds himself in the center of a life or death struggle that will alter the course of history for Israel--and the world.A hero's journey and young adult coming-of-age novel, The Giant Slayer imaginatively retells the Biblical story of David's meteoric rise from shepherd boy to fearless warrior and future king.As a novel, it can be read for fun, but Hart has included resources for the curious and the studious: a glossary of terms, a list of Bible verses quoted (more or less) directly, and discussion questions for use in small groups or classroom settings.

À propos de l'auteur

N. A. Hart grew up in Toronto, Canada and Brisbane, Australia, but wound up in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Family and cheap real estate drove her to it. She has been telling Bible stories to kids and teenagers for over twenty years. The Old Testament is her favorite because it's full of real people who are mixed bags of failure and faithfulness, fear and trust-just like she is.
