Before the show's Feb. 27 premiere, Iskander reflected on the "life-changing" ability to join the cast in such a pivotal role.

"I think David is one of the most interesting people because ... there's so much duality in him," he said. "He's the epitome of what it means to be human, to make mistakes, but to truly have a heart for God—and a heart that seeks after God's own heart."

Iskander, who said he feels "blessed" to be able to tell this story, explained how his experience portraying David transformed how he sees Scripture and the people presented within it.
