The book of Psalms is well-known and well-worn.

It is the Old Testament book most often quoted in the New Testament, and its quotations can be found everywhere from John Milton to Star Trek to Congressional speeches.

Why so much attention? The Church Father Athanasius said it best--most of Scripture speaks to us, but the Book of Psalms speaks for us.

This Study Guide includes: DVD and individual streaming access to the study's 8 video sessions Discussion & reflection questions Video outline and notes Independent study sections Illuminated manuscript activities In-depth breakdown of specific psalms Experience fresh connections to contemporary worship and devotional practices in this eight-session video-based study with well-known scholar Sandra Richter.

Indulge in the biblical study of the Psalms, letting Sandra do the heavy lifting of research and translation, which in turn allows you to engage the Bible in a deeply sensitive way.
