5.0 out of 5 stars Psalms Now a moving and useful worship resource, September 13, 1998

By A Customer

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Psalms Now (Hardcover)

After using Psalms Now in Bible study for litergical prayer I decided to try it in a Contemporary Christian Worship setting. The response was phenomenal. Whether it is used as a basis for prayer or in a traditional liturgical style it is a very helpful book to bring the psalmists words to life!

5.0 out of 5 stars encourages worship in today's language, June 26, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Psalms Now: Third Version (Hardcover)

I've been using Psalms Now along with my daily Bible reading, and the prayers and praises to God written 2000 years ago become even more meaningful with Leslie Brandt's paraphrases. He has encouraged me to personalize the individual Psalms in my own journaling, and that's brought my worship time; my focus on praising God; and my accountability to live a life of obedience to God to a whole new level. Thank you Mr. Brandt!

4.0 out of 5 stars PSALMS NOW, January 10, 2007

J. Lloyd (USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Psalms Now: Third Version (Hardcover)

Great book for reading Psalms in our times. It uses words and phrases which make some of them very pertinent to today. If read in conjunction with reading the same verses in the Bible, it opens up new thoughts. Especially the 23rd Psalm.
