Psalms: Soul Songs

Product Review (submitted on November 9, 2009):

Tim Chester understands Psalms!
Here are some of the highlights from the first part of the church's songbook, lovingly handled with study material which I have happily used in an urban priority setting where some Bible study guides miss the mark.

Tim has let the beauty and variety of the Psalms themselves do the work. They deal with our most common stumbling blocks of worry, anger, feeling low etc. And we are gently led to seeing that all these problems find their solutions in the person and work of the Lord Jesus.

The explicit stimulus to prayer based on what we've read is a great counter to what I tend to call 'Granny's toenail' prayers!

If I had one (small) regret, it's that even in a clear and simple series of studies, there's still too much to cover. But I guess that's down to us leaders...
