Description

Psalms Redux: Contemporary Poems and Prayers

These striking poems are reworkings of an ancient collection of poetic texts, the Psalms. Known for their raw honesty as well as their beauty and depth, the Psalms explore human experience and emotion in a way that is both powerful and relatable. Carla Grosch-Miller's contemporary take on these themes uses recognizable images and metaphors to create a fresh voice. The result is sixty refreshed Psalms that reflect the wrestling that accompanies new understandings of God, as well as wholly new poems written for specific occasions and events in modern life. This collection is not intended to replace the original Psalms, but rather offers an aid for those seeking to refresh their vocabulary of prayer and worship.

96 pages, paperback.
