Dr. Dave Nobles is a well-respected Bible teacher with over fifty-years of full-time ministry experience. He is also a former college professor and mentors several ministers serving in local church settings. In this book, Dr. Nobles addresses one of the most challenging topics in ministry, leadership. His approach is to look at leadership through the lens of King David. He reminds the reader that David made mistakes, suffered, and celebrated great victories. Dr. Nobles explores each scene of David's life, like a running commentary on the Scriptures. This helps the reader to remain grounded in the Word of God and proves that the principles presented are more than pithy sayings about leadership. These principles are true because God's Word firmly establishes them. These principles will help church leaders develop skills to lead with excellence. As Dr. Nobles reminds readers, there is a timeless principle that many have forgotten: families, churches, communities, and nations rise and fall based on the quality of those that lead them.
