Publisher's summary

The Psalms have been the prayer book of Israel for the past 3,000 years and the prayer book of the church for the past 2,000 years. The Psalms explore every possible response we can have to God, from the highest awe to the deepest love, from the darkest despair to icy anger. In the Psalms, we join David as we plumb the very depths of our hearts in our relationship with God. Join Logos Bible Study as Dr. Bill Creasy explores the Psalms, a journey through the poetry of experience.

The stories behind the songs

As familiar as so many of the Psalms are, this study enhanced both their beauty and meaning by telling the backstories of who wrote each, and in many cases (especially those by David) the historical context that inspired them. Dr. Creasy also broke down the poetic structure of some of the more elegantly written ones, revealing a new perspective what it took to create these spiritual works of art. Old favorites shine brighter, lesser knowns have been elevated. Great study.

Awesome lecture series!

This is another great lecture series from Dr. Bill Creasy. He is always incredibly insightful and engaging. He often supplements the material with personal stories which are relevant and interesting. He has taken several trips to Israel and the Middle East where he visits the locations depicted in the Bible and he shares those first hand accounts which enables him to take you back to that point in time that the scripture is talking about.

The Word exalted

I appreciated his style of teaching. As he read a psalm he would stop along the way to add his excellent insights. In this way I saw the Word exalted, and his teaching take second place. Refreshing.

What a way to worship!

This study brought the book of Psalms into perspective In relation to the rest of the old testament. It gave me a deep appreciation for all of the writings in the Psalms. The background of the Psalms who wrote them and why maybe want to go back and do it all over again. I highly recommend the study.
