This Poor Man Called: Stories and Songs of David (Volume 2)David Barker takes a unique approach in this exploration of the psalms of David. Each chapter begins with a creative retelling of the biblical narrative, setting the scene for the psalm arising out of that experience.

David Barker takes a unique approach in this exploration of the psalms of David. Each chapter begins with a creative retelling of the biblical narrative, setting the scene for the psalm arising out of that experience. Having grounded the psalm in the “story,” Barker then goes into a verse-by-verse exposition of the psalm, and provides some explanatory notes and a statement of the key message of the psalm.

At the end of each psalm exposition, Barker asks three basic questions: What do we learn about God? What do we learn about ourselves as the people of God? and What do we learn about the world? Answering these questions helps us to understand how David’s experience shaped his theocentric and biblical worldview. David’s theology of God is of One who is sovereign in every situation and reigns as King. All of life is lived in the presence of God, and life and the act of worship, are an interactive dynamic of despair and hope, failure and success, sin and forgiveness (with consequences). David faced all of these, and his psalms reveal how his understanding of God grew and was enriched through these experiences.

It is hoped this practical look at David’s psalms will deepen your understanding of God and the transforming work accomplished on the cross by his Son, Jesus Christ.

‘Over the last two decades I've had the privilege to call David Barker my pastor, professor, mentor and friend. His passion for the Lord, his Word and specifically the Psalms has left an indelible mark on my soul and my ministry. I am overjoyed to see that many others will be similarly impacted through these volumes. With exegetical precision, storytelling creativity and pastoral care, Barker brings the Psalms to life in a fresh way that stirs the heart, strengthens the mind and-most importantly-exalts Christ, our glorious King!’ Allan Self, Lead Pastor, Bethel Baptist Church, Strathroy, ON

solid, quality cabinet and the best wall mounting system I have seen in a while
Color: Black With Silver Handle, Size: 24x30
It is a quality cabinet and has the best wall mounting system I have seen in a long time. The cabinet is solid and sturdy and was easy to put together. I can already see it lasting a long time in our bathroom. It is a bit heavy and you may need a second person to assist with mounting.

Looks great.
Love the look. Took a bit to put it together. The only negative was putting on the back with the tack nails. There was no way to see if you were hitting the board so I missed it about 1/3 of the time. Might be better to use wood glue and forget using the nails.

Perfect for a small bathroom
Nice cabinet for the bathroom. I have a 120-year-old house with small bathrooms; this doubled the cabinet space; the white keeps the room visually larger. I'd like to add the instructions are awesome: no verbiage just step by step diagrams. Each hole drilled and ready, as well as pilot hole where the screws will be received. Each piece labeled. The instructions have in the listings the count of pieces with a notation of extra screws, so you don't think you "screwed up" when you're done. One note: as the shelves are part of the construction, they are not adjustable, in my case not a big deal.
