A Walk Through the Psalms
Author: Lt-Colonel Norman H Voisey
Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
About the Book You might say that the Psalms stand in the center of all scripture. For they speak of experiences, the very center of life itself. The Psalms beckon us to a rock-solid faith which will provide us the victories over life’s troubles, even if we foist them upon ourselves. There are many of us who return to them repeatedly to hold fast to that which we have attained. Gordon D Fee and Douglas D Stuart categorized the Psalms for us in this way: Laments–we all go through tough times and we learn from these Psalms that we are not alone in our struggles, and that God is able to help and strengthen us. Thanksgiving Psalms, Hymns of Praise, and Salvation History Psalms have elements of praise which elevates our understanding of God’s faithfulness, protection, and benefit. Eight Wisdom Psalms and ten Psalms of Trust promise the reader of the goodness and care of God and provide us with the vision of a victorious life. Ultimately, the Psalms are intentional, their vital purpose is to forge a connection between the worshiper and God, whether in a cathedral or prayer cell. For generation after generation, mankind has sung and prayed the Psalms. About the Author Lt-Colonel Norman H Voisey completed 40 years of service in The Salvation Army where he was a Trustee, having served also in that capacity for three of their hospitals. His application to reserve Section 8 funding for Senior Housing in Cincinnati was secured for their Booth Residence. Voisey was educated in Canada but in the United States, he continued studies at The Salvation Army Training College, Pace University, and Case Western Reserve University. Voisey is an avid reader of Judaic thought, a student of spiritual and literary greats, Abraham Joshua Heschel, Harold Bloom, Cynthia Ozick, and Elie Wiesel. He leans heavily toward nonfiction, but classic novels continue to nurture his experience. He loves poetry, sports, genealogy, music and the arts. As a member of the New York Staff Band for 16 years, and as the leader of youth music and Christian interpretive dance groups, Voisey has brought ministry to the United Kingdom, Europe, the Far East, Estonia and Russia. Voisey is close to confirming his Huguenot Ancestry and the story that his forbears were driven from Voisey, France to John Calvin’s Geneva, and eventually to Devonshire and finally to Windsor, Ontario, his birthplace.

Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
