Our lives are filled with twists and turns, each one determined by choices that we make and colored by the consequences of what we find beyond our control. Somewhere along the road on our journey, between the sweetness of God's grace and the aftermath of merciful judgment in our lives, we find ourselves in the middle of God's will. In Lee Martin's brilliant and compelling novel, Southern Psalms, shunned Amish Minister Travis Marlowe is confronted with the missiles and pangs of life. Finding himself now living in the aftermath of a terrible choice and battling not only with forces seen and unseen, but also with voices internal and external, he is driven to the very edge of hopelessness and despair. With the help of new friends and his daily Bible readings, especially his beloved Psalms, Travis steps into a new beginning built on the foundation of faith ... a faith that is sorely tested, but found to be as true as it is tempered and forged in the purifying fires of doubt, criticism, bigotry, and hate of 1960s southern Louisiana. As he battles Satan and his demons, Travis discovers the answers to nagging questions from deep within himself about what is most important in life. Underlying everything is his true love and devotion for God, for others, and for a wife and daughter that he left behind. Would he ever be able to go home again? The only road that will lead him there is one that he would have to choose for himself found only within the wonderment of God's mercy and grace. --Jim Crutchfield
Enjoy reading and applying different types of psalms, and seeing Jesus in every one. Christopher Ash shows us how to read and apply the book of Psalms. He takes us through 15 pairs of psalms that represent various €˜types’-including some that are very familiar and some that are often ignored. He helps us to see how they are fulfilled by Jesus and therefore point to Jesus first and foremost, transforming how we read them, enjoy them and sing them. Christopher Ash comments that this understanding of the Psalms "can shape the dynamics of our Christian lives in ways that neither a dry and arid intellectualism nor a rootless emotionalism can do. The Psalms can make us Christians with deep feelings, deep emotions, deep thoughts, and deep desires."

What happened at the Autumn Festival? What makes a Psalm a Wisdom Psalm? Why are the Psalms arranged as they are and how far is it possible to date them? Can we make sense of the often obscure Psalm headings? What light is shed on the Psalms by other ancient Near Eastern texts? These and many other issues are judiciously evaluated by John Day in a wide-ranging volume.
