Description
If God can take David -- the invisible eighth son of a forgotten family -- and turn him into a king, just imagine what magnificent plans He has for redeeming your life.
David was born a number 8 -- a hidden gem, often overlooked and undervalued by everyone except for God. For David, being a number 8 seemed like a curse until the day God transformed him from the unknown eighth son of Jesse into the much-honored king of Israel. When God sends out an invitation to greatness, His directions don't always make sense to us. You may feel like the most invisible, broken number 8 out there, but God sees your hidden value and is growing you for better things. David didn't know it, but his time as a simple shepherd with a dull future did not go unnoticed by God. In David's darkest moments, he was cultivating the kind of gifts, wisdom, and leadership he would need to become a king. Even when you're an underdog in the eyes of the world, God is working behind the scenes to develop you into a king or queen.

Gina G, Reviewer
I absolutely loved this book. I spoke to the Number 8 within me. Each page inspired, resonated, empowered, and reminded me of the powerful presence of God. Pastor Gray is a great communicator that's humorous, vulnerable, and honest and it's reflected in each page. He truly is allowing God to work and encourages the reader to do the same. Great book that I recommend. I feel this is exactly what I needed at this journey stage of my life.
