Book Description
The book of Psalms occupies a unique place in Scripture, being both the Word from God and words to God from His people. Unfortunately, psalm singing no longer plays an integral part of worship in most evangelical churches. In this book, thirteen well-respected scholars urge the church to rediscover the treasure of the Psalms as they examine the history of psalm singing in the church, present biblical reasons for the liturgical practice, and articulate the practical value it provides us today.

From Cassian to Cranmer: Singing the Psalms from Ancient Times until the Dawning of the Reformation — Hughes Oliphant Old and Robert Cathcart 2. Psalm Singing in Calvin and the Puritans — Joel R.

Book Description
The theologian of the Vatican Council and prefector of the Congregation of the Faith in the Vatican makes accessible from different approaches the essential elements of a theology of worship. Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger's exploration ultimately culminates in an exploration of the question: Who do you say that the Son of Man is?

Book Description
Levine, a graduate fellow at the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College, explores the Psalms as dialogic speech acts shaped by the conventions of human speech communication and by the particular religious symbolism and discourse traditions of the Bible and the ancient Near East. He draws on critical perspectives such as the anthropology of ritual, speech-act theory, midrashic hermeneutics, and post-Holocaust theology, to reveal the functions of the Psalms in the ancient and the modern world, and the attitudes and roles of the original psalmists.

Book Description
The Psalms frequently issue a call to sing a new song unto the Lord. While this call is often thought to refer to singing the Psalms or even other songs written by those more gifted than ourselves, Myers suggests such is not the primary intention. For as we are all beings created in the image of God, we are all called to create new songs in response to the word and work of God. It is with this in mind that Myers encourages the Christ-follower to consider a new approach to time spent in Scripture. The reader is encouraged to meditate on the Psalms and then respond with a unique song of worship to God. By seeking to create a new worshipful response to the Psalms the reader may find that the inevitably dry devotional times that nearly all of us encounter have been invigorated. A New Song is both a devotional and a guidebook. As a devotional, the reader is offered a glimpse into Myers multi-year journey through the Psalms resulting in the writing of over 170 poems. Each poem, when read alongside the accompanying Psalm, can help the prayerful reader to consider the ways in which God may be speaking through each Psalm. As a guidebook, A New Song briefly discusses our innate creative nature and then offers suggestions which, when illustrated by Myers examples, will encourage you to find your own creative voice with which to sing a new song unto the Lord.

Book Description
The years have been long, but have passed quickly, since I set out to follow my vocation. While I cannot say I have enjoyed every minute, I have basked in the light of learning and adventure, the "Aha!" of the days of my life. The greatest thrill for me has been the visible ideation on the faces of both children and adults as they have caught the knowledge and passionate awe of the moment. These poems are inspired by those "moments," I hope you will enjoy them as you read. At least occasionally, read them aloud, for they are to be savored, not just alone, but with others. Have fun with my work. I have.

Book Description
Independent African countries have faced many challenges on the road to economic and social development. The heritage of colonialism has weighed heavy on their shoulders, and the promises of post-colonialism have not always been fulfilled. The nature and trajectory of the development project is determined, in large part, by governments. Where they have been limited in - or neglectful of - their capacity to improve the lives of their people, non-government organizations have been quick to respond. Composing a New Song comprises portraits of five such NGOs, from Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Each was spurred by a moral concern for those sectors of society that were marginalized or ignored completely, by the march of mainstream development, but each has chosen its own route, its own tactics and its own methods. These stories, told by founders and senior managers of the organizations, offer a rare insight into personal motivations, social reactions and political choices - indeed, the real world of development, one that is too often glossed over by more orthodox texts.
