While there are many books which delve into the historical setting of the Psalms and their theological content, Jacoby focuses on their value for experiencing God. We all wish to go to 'deeper places' in our walk with God; however there is a disconnect between what we know of God and how much we really know Him. Jacoby says that the gift of the Psalms is that it meets us where we are at, deals with areas of pain, dissonance and disassociation in our relationship with God and others, but holds out hope. Jacoby claims that what other books of the Bible describe, the Psalms demonstrates. Jacoby is part of a Australian music group called Sons of Korah which puts Psalms to music (if you haven't heard them, they are worth a listen). Having soaked in Psalms for the past 15 years, he speaks of the Psalms as a book that he has lived with and has shaped him. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
People typically have two ways of thinking about spirituality. Either they have accepted the false reality that they can only know about God, without knowing him personally, or they have romanticized spirituality to such an extent that it becomes far too otherworldly. In either case, expectations are lowered, and they live in spiritual bankruptcy, feeling like spiritual failures. Pastor and musician Matthew Jacoby sets the Psalms to music as they were intended, performing them with his band, Sons of Korah, for over fifteen years. In the Psalms, he has discovered a portrait of authentic spirituality that helps us journey from deep sadness to profound joy. Jacoby gives readers an in-depth look at the Psalms as a pathway to intimate and satisfying relationship with God. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

This book is not a psalm-by-psalm commentary or devotional but, rather, an exploration of how our faith and emotional life interact, using examples of this from the book of Psalms. ( )
