King Solomon is without question a significant figure in history. He is renowned for the wisdom and understanding that God gave to him and we can read many of his insightful thoughts in the book of Proverbs. His fame spread throughout the region and he became a teacher, not only to his own people, but also to the peoples and even the leaders of other nations. He is also remembered for his great achievement in building a truly magnificent temple for the worship of God. However, the most important lessons for us are found in the spiritual life of Solomon. In Appointed for Greatness we cover insights into: His preparation and training for ascending to the throne How difficult experiences can become very fruitful The meaning and importance of the fear of the Lord How God's promises can shape our lives King Solomon left a mixed legacy, a reflection of the strengths and shortcomings of his life. We can learn from him, following his good example while avoiding his shortcomings, so that we can be people who fulfil God's plan for our lives.

Though the world's wisest king, Solomon's heart was led astray by temptations of wealth, sex, and power. And we face the same dangers today, though the temptations may be different in degree and detail. Author Philip Ryken writes, "In witnessing Solomon's moral triumphs and sinful failures we learn how to live more wisely. By the grace of God, we may avoid a tragic downfall of our own and learn how to use money, sex, and power for the glory of God." Tracing Solomon's life from coronation to burial—and from godly devotion to self-serving excess—Ryken shows readers how to avoid similar downfalls and seek God's glory amid earthly temptations. These thirteen chapters are pastoral, rich in application, and biblically faithful. This overview of Solomon's life also includes a study guide, making it a great resource for both personal and group use.

Everyone wants to be successful. The problem, though, is that most people misunderstand what constitutes true success. The world defines success in terms of our accomplishments, the fame and fortune we achieve, and the recognitions we receive, all of which are fleeting and temporary successes at best. True success, however, is based upon our character, the relationship we have with God, and the glory God receives from our lives. So how do we achieve this level of success? Lessons from Solomon answers this question by looking at the life of King Solomon, a man who not only achieved success by the worlds standards but also hadand losttrue success that comes from knowing God. Author Glen A. Blanscet has penned engaging narrative retellings of King Solomons story from the Bible, and from King Solomons story we learn several success lessons that we can apply in our own search for true success in life. Based on the life of Solomon, Blanscet has distilled from Solomons story the life lessons that lead us to genuine success from the wisest man who ever lived. I highly recommend this book! Dr. David L. Allen, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary In this book, Glen Blanscet has masterfully extracted from scripture Solomons successes and failures, providing the reader with vivid lessons on attaining true success.
