Celebrating the Psalms is written for theological students, for working ministers and for those leading Bible studies. The depths and variety of the psalms reflect every conceivable situation: success, anger, patience, frustration, joy, acceptance, revolt, holiness, submission. The psalms are as relevant today as they when they were written. Celebrating the Psalms offers a heuristic approach to reading and understanding the Book of Psalms, to both their original significance and their place in the world of today. The author has been theological student, parish minister and theological teacher and would have treasured this book 50 years ago! He is now a retired minister of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland.
