"Reading the Psalms as Scripture" by James M Hamilton Jr. and Matthew Damico
Our May Book of the Month is “Reading the Psalms as Scripture” by James M Hamilton Jr and Matthew Damico
The Psalms cultivate a life of prayer grounded in Scripture.
In Reading the Psalms as Scripture, James M. Hamilton Jr. and Matthew Damico guide the reader to delight in the spiritual artistry of the Psalms. Psalms is a carefully arranged book saturated in Scripture. The psalmists drew from imagery and themes from earlier Scripture, which are then developed by later Scripture and fulfilled in Christ. The book of Psalms advances God's grand story of redemption, and it gives us words to pray by drawing us into this story. When we meditate on the promises and patterns in the Psalms, we can read, pray, and sing them with faithfulness.
