Ever felt glad, sad, or mad and didn't quite know how to talk to God about it? How long since you have used something other than a "happy" psalm in corporate worship? A Psalm-Shaped Life explores how these ancient prayer-songs give us a vision of God and voice to respond to God in all of life, in its joys and sorrows. Psalms of all kinds have shaped the life of God's people for three thousand years. They can and should do so today, also. Reading and praying the Psalms individually and together puts us in a long line of men and women who have poured out their hearts to God using these ancient texts and have been shaped in doing so. A Psalm Shaped Life is a plea for regular and informed immersion in the Psalms, both individually and as a community.

Meditations on the Psalms helping women to express their feelings and grow in their faith. Many of us suppress our feelings because we’re worried they are ungodly. Others of us are so led by our emotions that we let them dominate everything, including our faith. In these honest, personal and uplifting meditations on 24 selected psalms, Courtney Reissig looks at emotions we all experience, ranging from shame, anxiety, and anger through to gratitude, hope, and joy. For each, she shows how the psalms give us permission to acknowledge how we feel before God, and how they can help us to use those feelings productively and faithfully. This inspiring book will give women a language to cry out to God in order to help them process their feelings, as well as help them to grow in their faith. Can be used as a daily devotion.

Enjoy reading and applying different types of psalms, and seeing Jesus in every one. Christopher Ash shows us how to read and apply the book of Psalms. He takes us through 15 pairs of psalms that represent various €˜types’-including some that are very familiar and some that are often ignored. He helps us to see how they are fulfilled by Jesus and therefore point to Jesus first and foremost, transforming how we read them, enjoy them and sing them. Christopher Ash comments that this understanding of the Psalms "can shape the dynamics of our Christian lives in ways that neither a dry and arid intellectualism nor a rootless emotionalism can do. The Psalms can make us Christians with deep feelings, deep emotions, deep thoughts, and deep desires."

Would you like to be happier? Would you like to have a stronger marriage? Would you enjoy having a better relationship with your children? Your parents? Your siblings? Wouldn't we all. In a world where we have everything at our fingertips, have more wealth than can be imagined, and are protected by many devices, God has been replaced. People are experiencing loneliness, stress, depression, and a host of many other mental illnesses. The temperature of the world continues to rise as people try to figure out what to do about climate change. Crime continues to rise as people spread further and further apart to keep themselves from harm. What if the answer to all these concerns is God? Join me as I journey through a passage that has shaped the life my wife and I have built--Psalm 127. This passage holds the keys to what ails the world unless the Lord takes you through these five verses by using the author's personal stories and some great stories in the Bible to drive a point home. That point? That "unless the Lord." Unless the Lord is a book about how culture teaches us that we can do it all on our own and that we have control; this book goes through the process of showing us that God is completely in control and that if we lived our lives that way, it would be easier; it would be more enjoyable. We would see more people living longer, healthier lives. Unless the Lord doesn't make any promises, but Psalm 127 does, and a life built on those promises could be an amazingly blessed life. Come and take the journey to freedom from the stresses of the world and enjoy "unless the Lord."

Widely regarded as the modern C. S. Lewis, N. T. Wright, one of the world’s most trusted and popular Bible scholars and the bestselling author of Simply Christian and Surprised by Hope, presents a manifesto urging Christians to live and pray the Bible’s Psalms in The Case for the Psalms. Wright seeks to reclaim the power of the Psalms, which were once at the core of prayer life. He argues that, by praying and living the Psalms, we enter into a worldview, a way of communing with God and knowing him more intimately, and receive a map by which we understand the contours and direction of our lives. For this reason, all Christians need to read, pray, sing, and live the Psalms. By providing the historical, literary, and spiritual contexts for reading these hymns from ancient Israel’s songbook, The Case for the Psalms provides the tools for incorporating these divine poems into our sacred practices and into our spirituality itself.

God wants your heart... The Psalms are in a category of their own. They are not just commanding; they are contagious. And they can change us. Tears, affliction, shame, regret, grief, anger, discouragement, turmoil...we hear all these cries, we feel their overflow, and we see that all these things happen in relation to our totally sovereign God.

Psalm 23 is probably the best-known and most-read passage in the Bible—a wonderfully reassuring picture of the believer’s life. Through it we learn that the Lord God Almighty is the faithful, heavenly Shepherd of His sheep—not only faithfully leading His sheep in life but also through the valley of the shadow of death and bringing them into His house, where He will dwell with them forever. Reflecting on Psalm 23 verse by verse will help readers see how rich and privileged the believer’s life is as they learn how God is personally committed to protect and bring His people to be with Him in heaven.

"A book you will want to read and read again." -- Eugene Peterson Afterword by Bono. How can we find a more transparent, resilient, and fearless life of faith? The book of Psalms has been central to God's people for millennia, across all walks of life and cultural contexts. In reading it, we discover that we are never alone in our joys, sorrows, angers, doubts, praises, or thanksgivings. In it, we learn about prayer and poetry, honesty and community, justice and enemies, life and death, nations and creation. Open and Unafraid shows us how to read the psalms in a fresh, life-giving way, and so access the bottomless resources for life that they provide. "David Taylor’s take is 'open and unafraid' alright. He really goes there, exposing himself before God in the most beautiful way. He might have called the book Naked, because if you don’t find your own self feeling a little exposed here, it might be time to take some armor off." -- Bono, from the Afterword "A book that you will want to read and read again, and yet again, in order to discover the wisdom of the Psalms that shows us how to walk in the life-giving way of Jesus." -- Eugene Peterson, from the Foreword "A winsome, accessible entry into the Book of Psalms…Connects the poetry of the psalms to real-life wonders and struggles." -- Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary "Taylor reads these biblical prayers with Dr. Seuss, rappers, and other poets, along with theologians and the daily news....Guides readers in tracing out patterns of holy speech that have the potential for healing our hearts and our communities." -- Ellen F. Davis, Duke Divinity School "I have always loved the psalms--for their defiant devotion, their deep joy, and their brutal yet beautiful honesty. And after reading this fantastic book about them, I love them even more." -- Matt Redman, worship leader and song writer "In these fraught and fearsome days, we need the psalms more than ever. And we need more faithful artists and thinkers like David Taylor to mine the infinite gifts the psalms offer across the ages." -- Karen Swallow Prior, author of Fierce Convictions

When Jesus was dying on the cross for our sins, three of the seven statements he made at this critical moment of his life were from a single Old Testament book, the Book of Psalms. First, he cried out, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" which was a quotation from Psalm 22:1. Later, he said, "I thirst," a quotation from Psalm 69:21. Finally, he prayed, "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit," words drawn from Psalm 31:5. At the key moment in his life, our Savior drew his strength from Book of Psalms. Jesus made four other statements while he hung on the cross-"Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do"; "Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise"; "Woman, behold thy son!" and "It is finished"-but the only Scripture he quoted while on the cross came from the Book of Psalms. In his hour of deepest need, he found his help in the psalms.This book is written to teach you to do the same!Understanding the PsalmsWhat is a Psalm?A Biblical psalm is a Spirit-inspired prayer, originally voiced in song, addressing the need of a human heart-a need for mercy and forgiveness, a need for miraculous help (for healing or deliverance or protection, for example), the need to praise and worship the Creator, the need for guidance or comfort or justice or strength, or even the need to complain and question. The psalms address these and every other human need under the sun. The exciting thing is this: Because the psalms are Spirit-anointed prayers, they have the ability to tap into the presence and power of Heaven on behalf of everyone who reads and prays them, including you and me! That is why the Lord included them in his written Word, to make them available to his people down through the ages so that he could do miracles in their lives.
