Praises prayers & curses : conversations with the Psalms

Schmidt presents a bold yet refreshing prism of grace on each of the 150 most misinterpreted songs in all of Scripture. Countering the notion of the Psalms as meek, mild, and honey-coated, he tackles the despair and hurt of the psalmists head-on, wrestling intimately with some of his own dark places. The result is as if to see the Psalms for the first time -- or for the uninitiated, to see in them God's truth and wisdom for his people in all times and seasons
