A book from “the Father of the Modern Creationism Movement,” this marvelous look at the author’s favorite book of the Bible gives the reader insights not commonly taught in the Church today. This devotional, focusing on the spiritual, physical, and scientific dimensions of the Psalms, starts with the conviction that the Bible is a supernaturally-transmitted collection of the books, with Psalms leading the parade of the world’s greatest literature. From the book’s definite nod to scientific concepts, to the groanings of King David, Treasures in the Psalms promises to be a gift beyond measure.

Finding Treasures in the Psalms is a devotional guide that takes you on a daily journey through the Book of Psalms. When I first started writing the devotionals in early January, 2020, life was normal and all was well. However, two short months later, COVID-19 had spread throughout the world causing fear, uncertainty, sickness and death. It was at that time I came to realize that David's words were more than just a collection of poems that contained a few inspirational verses. David lived with fear and doubt. He faced uncertainty and the threat of death. Just like us, David didn't know how things would turn out when he was on the run from Saul, his son, Absalom, or fighting the Philistines. Yet, throughout his life, he trusted and wrote about God's faithfulness; and despite his circumstances, made praising God a priority. What are you facing today? Are you living with fear and doubt about your future? Are you hurting from a broken relationship? Take heart, you can find hope and reassurance of God's love in the Psalms. Start each day by reading about God's faithfulness, love, provision, and forgiveness. Allow His Word to encourage you. But more than that, allow His Word to refresh you, and give you reason to praise your heavenly Father. Charles Hall is a first-time author who lives in Wilmington, NC with his wife, Vivian.

Written centuries before Christ, the Psalms of the Hebrew Bible have been prayed by Christians since the founding of the Church. The early church fathers expounded the psalms in the light of the mystery of Christ, his death and resurrection, and his saving redemption. In this book, a Benedictine monk examines the Christian praying of the Psalms, taking into account modern and contemporary research on the Psalms. Working from the Hebrew text, Fr. Laurence Kriegshauser offers a verse-by-verse commentary on each of the one hundred and fifty psalms, highlighting poetic features such as imagery, rhythm, structure, and vocabulary, as well as theological and spiritual dimensions and the relation of psalms to each other in the smaller collections that make up the whole. The book attempts to integrate modern scholarship on the Psalms with the act of prayer and help Christians pray the psalms with greater understanding of their Christological meaning. The book contains an introduction, a glossary of terms, an index of topics, a table of English renderings of selected Hebrew words, and an index of biblical citations. Praying the Psalms in Christ will be welcomed by students of theology and liturgy, by priests, religious, and laypeople who pray the Liturgy of the Hours, and by all Christians who seek to pray the Psalms with greater profit and fervor.
