Into the Psalms

Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you...I call with all my heart; answer me, O LORD... My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? These few excerpts from The Book of Psalms touch upon the essential fact that it is a book about relationship-having a real and meaningful connection with God. Far from dry and dreary religion, worship and prayer in the psalms is spirited and sincere. The psalms proclaim that all are invited to encounter God and to dialogue with him. That invitation comes down to us...and also led to this book being written. This book is for anyone who wants to get into the psalms. There are three parts: Into Their World, Into Their Message, Into Our Lives. Topics covered include: The Background of Psalms The Psalms as Literature The Different Types of Psalms The Nature of God in Psalms Themes covered in the Psalms Jesus in the Psalms Psalms as Life Tools How to Study Individual Psalms ...and much more About the author: Dr. Rolan Dia Monje, evangelist and teacher, has spoken in various settings in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Indochina, and Asia-Pacific.
