Publisher's summary

Weary travelers. You've seen them - everything they own crammed into their luggage. Staggering through terminals and hotel lobbies with overstuffed suitcases, trunks, duffels, and backpacks. Backs ache. Feet burn. Eyelids droop. We've all seen people like that. At times we are people like that - if not with our physical luggage then at least with our spiritual load. We all lug loads we were never intended to carry. Fear. Worry. Discontent. No wonder we get so weary. We're worn out from carrying that excess baggage. Wouldn't it be nice to lose some of those bags?

That's the invitation of Max Lucado. With the Twenty-Third Psalm as our guide, let's release some of the burdens we were never intended to bear. Using these verses as a guide, Max Lucado walks us through a helpful inventory of our burdens. May God use this psalm to remind you to release the burdens you were never meant to bear.

He reads in a way I wouldn't have interpreted

Traveling Light

Loved this book. Gives me new perspective on a Psalm which I memorized as a very young child.

Great Book and Great Listen

I always thought Psalm 23 was a calming psalm and I often say it before I go to bed at night, after the Lord's prayer. After reading this book, Traveling Light, my eyes have been opened to Psalm 23 being a psalm that is meant to lead you through day to day life. Mr. Lucado uses each verse of Psalm 23 and applies it to day to day struggles to show you how you can use this Psalm to address day to day worries, concerns. Showing you that David wrote this to honor God in his life and thank Him for shepherding him. David is thanking God for being his shepherd. The narration is wonderful.

great story, narration a bit syrupy

The narration seemed syrupy, so it distracted me from the content. I'd rather hear it in the author's own voice. Otherwise, an enjoyable book.
