Rediscover your favorites

Brandt continues to rewrite and renew his view of the Psalms, God's songbook. It will give the reader a chance to rediscover what grabbed you the first time you read a Psalm and knew God was speaking. I have had the chance to use the book with junior high and high school students and I have seen it provoke thought. This last purchase of a dozen copies were for graduation gifts for the seniors at my church. The book makes a wonderful gift for young people that seek spiritual transfomation through the Word.
VERY ENJOYABLE

I originally found out about this book when a church member came to the hospital to see me. She read Psalm 23 to my husband and I and we really enjoyed it. This book is written in what I call "today's language". Easy to understand. I highly recommend it.
encourages worship in today's language

I've been using Psalms Now along with my daily Bible reading, and the prayers and praises to God written 2000 years ago become even more meaningful with Leslie Brandt's paraphrases. He has encouraged me to personalize the individual Psalms in my own journaling, and that's brought my worship time; my focus on praising God; and my accountability to live a life of obedience to God to a whole new level. Thank you Mr. Brandt!
