The three greatest kings of Israel were Saul, David, and Solomon. However, many years later a different king would come. This king was born in a stable, not a palace. He served the sick, the poor and the needy and was without any sin. This king is Jesus, God's Son. He is a very different king. His greatest victory was his death on the cross and because of that God made him, the greatest of all kings; the King of Kings.

Deepak carefully and accurately tells the story of three great Old Testament kings... By the end of the book, you almost want to sing out "Jesus is different. Jesus is better. Jesus is the true King."
Jared Kennedy Editor, The Gospel Coalition
Deepak does a great job of helping children understand the history of the kings of old - in both their triumphs and failures... This book will serve as a helpful resource in the quest to show children how the Old Testament continually points to Jesus.
Anne Lincoln Holibaugh Children's Minister, The Village Church
This book displays how God's covenant faithfulness to His people is carried out in the lives of Saul, David, and Solomon What is unique and powerful is how at the end of each king's life an aspect of King Jesus' life and saving work is highlighted. This book emphasizes that if God has determined to redeem a people for Himself, then nothing can overcome that, not even the pride, sin, and foolishness of man
