The Psalms are an important part of Christianity and understanding the Bible. They have been used for years as a core to the Bible and can even stand as a summary of Scripture and all that it offers. The Psalms are also a wonderful and easy introduction to the Bible and the devotional aspects that come with studying God's Word for people of all ages. All 150 Psalms will take you through a full range of human emotions from God's creation and can help you transform your own understandings of your faith as well. This devotional companion shows the text of the Psalms with a one-page reflection that lets you dig into the Word. Each reflection includes a basic introduction with useful information and a structured way to pray, meditate on, and apply the psalms to your life. This follows the Lutheran Understanding of the study of God's Word: oratio (prayer), meditatio (meditation), and tentatio (struggle).

The Psalter is the prayerbook of the people of God. The tradition of incorporating the Psalter in the teaching and life and worship of the primitive community was maintained in the centuries following the apostolic period and continued to provide a major influence upon the thought and spirituality of Christians throughout patristic times. Perhaps no other book of the Bible has been more fully commented upon and explained than the Psalter, right on through the Middle Ages and into Reformation times. - from Foreward by John Eudes Bamberger, Abbott of the Genesee
