21 Psalms for the 21st Century: A Process Meditation

This book is the result of a spiritual practice of reading the Psalms, adopted by the author in the early days of the pandemic-a practice that went from Psalm 1 to Psalm 150 and then started all over again, and again, and again. Psalm reading deepened into psalm study, enriched by the author's process-relational meditations and the addition of contemporary prayers. The resulting work is a book of warning as well as an ongoing source of hope. These 21 psalms, chosen for their relevance to 21st-century concerns, bridge the gap between ancient and modern, devotion and study, uncertainty and assurance, anguish and joy. They demonstrate that, through the centuries, God's call for justice has not dimmed, nor God's steadfast love faltered.
