Publisher's summary

God wants your heart.

The whole Bible teaches truth and awakens emotions, but the Psalms are in a category of their own. They do not just awaken the heart; they put it in the foreground. They do not merely invite our emotions to respond to God's truth; they put our emotions on display.

The Psalms are more than commanding-they are contagious. We are not just listening to profound ideas and feelings. We are living among them in their overflow. We touch pillows wet with tears. We hear and feel the unabashed cries of affliction, shame, regret, grief, anger, discouragement, and turmoil. But what makes all this stunningly different from the sorrows of the world is that all of it - absolutely all of it - is experienced in relation to the totally sovereign God.

This book is an invitation. God wants our hearts. He will take them as he finds them. And then, with the healing contagion of the Psalms, he will shape them. Accept his invitation to come.

This is a amazing book for bringing me closer to my savior

I love how this book taught me about what David went through when he committed adultery and murder and Uriah. And how the Lord covered his sin, this was a beautiful part of this book, and it contained many things that drew my heart closer to my savior.

Excellent Audio

I thoroughly enjoyed this reading. I learned so much about the Pslams. I'm how we are all shaped as God wants us to be and how God wants us to do to others. It's a short book but powerful fruit.
