Description

The Psalms as Prayer by Thomas Merton explores the psalms not just as poetry, but also as a means of prayer. In this book, Merton guides the reader through representative psalms to understand why they are considered an essential part of Christian worship. Merton explains that the Church values the psalms because they express the community's experience of God, their union with Christ, and their contemplation of God in the mystery of Christ. By coming to know and love the psalms, readers can gain a deeper understanding of God and enter into the Church's own experience of divine things. This book provides an opportunity for readers to engage with the psalms in a new way, exploring their significance as a means of prayer and worship.
