This is a collection of reflections on biblical passages and two short articles on how translation of the original Greek text is used in translating the Our Father or Lord's Prayer and Christ the Good Shepherd. There are over two hundred biblical reflections, many written during the covid-pandemic. While the authors are Catholic and references to Catholic teachings and the Fathers of the Church are abundant; this text offered to all men and women of faith, or those searching to make sense of life in their search for God in the Sacred Scriptures.

“I am your shepherd. You have no need of anything, because I am all you need.” Do you ever wish God would speak directly to you? The Psalms are filled with the heart cry of a man for his God. But they are also overflowing with the depths of God’s heart for you. In Speak, Lord, you will learn how to engage with the Psalms in a fresh, dynamic way—hearing them as though God were speaking directly to you. Vic Black, the National Prayer Director for The Navigators, shares his passion to ignite your personal relationship with God by teaching you to interpret the Psalms from God’s perspective. Each chapter provides a psalm rewritten in the first person, words of reflection, and writing prompts and devotional thoughts to encourage you on your own journey in engaging in the Psalms. As you enter into this collection of meditative devotions, you can be sure to hear words of rescue, encouragement, and hope deep in your soul. If you are hungry for more of God, he is ready to satisfy with new spiritual practices found in Speak, Lord.
