Sometimes it's hard for people to reconcile their lives in this chaotic, energized, nonsensical world with their faith in God. They want to know what's really true, what they can count on, what they can build their futures on. They want their lives to matter. And yet to them the Bible often seems merely to be an ancient book about dead people who had no idea of the stresses and fears and challenges of living today.

This straightforward, real-world devotional guide is designed to help people of all ages connect powerfully with the God of the Bible as revealed in the Psalms—the Bible's songbook. Within the exquisitely emotional lyrics in these songs, young readers will find all the feelings, struggles, and fears they face each day. And they'll find the spiritual resources to help them thrive.

Using 90 selected passages from the Psalms, Peter Wallace has put together a stimulating new devotional full of fresh ideas for finding ways to connect with God, with one another, and with the world at large. As a result, readers will gain encouragement and strength to face their uncertain world with the wisdom and love of the God who so deeply loves them.

Industry Reviews

"Peter Wallace is a beautiful thinker and a deep, humane soul; this book distills that beauty and reveals that depth. We could ask for no better guide to the comfort, the wisdom--and the poetry--that the Psalms hold for us searchers."
-Michael Chabon, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier Clay

"Peter Wallace understands the power of the psalms, and the need to engage them-all of them, praise and lament and confusion alike. Through the use of his own experience-his own inner life-he opens up each of the psalms for us so that we can see them anew, while in his concluding prayers for each section, he acknowledges the difficulty of many of these texts, the trials in many of our lives-and the ongoing goodness of God."
-Greg Garrett, author of Crossing Myself
