    About this audiobook

    “It is not out of compliment that lovers keep on telling one another how beautiful they are; the delight is incomplete till it is expressed…”

    C.S Lewis

    The Book of Psalms is at the heart of the Christian Bible.Throughout voice of the Psalmist cries out to God with a voice, at times of despair or supplication, at times in frustration and penitence and, of course ultimately, in Praise.

    Half of the Psalms were likely written by the Shepherd-King, King David, a man described in the Bible as “a man after God’s own heart”. Indeed, the Psalms express a true heart cry to the Creator, with no pseudo religiosity, but with a refreshing honesty that has kept the Psalms at the core of worship for thousands of years. 

    Here they are read in the King James Authorised translation by Simon Hester, with original music, sparingly used, to enhance the readings.

      AT THE GROCERY STORE, I searched for a few healthy snack options. On a sale rack, I found crunchy peapod snacks. They sounded healthier than potato chips, with a similar crunch-salt value, so I grabbed them. After getting home I tasted them. Yuck. Wh

      WHAT DOES IT REALLY MEAN to pray without ceasing? Does it mean we chant at the wailing wall in Jerusalem? Or is it more like the meditative murmurs of a cloistered nun? I used to think that was the picture of devoted prayer. Today, it looks like cons
