‘What is unique about the psalter compared to other books of praise? Which of the Psalms are directly applied to Christ in the New Testament? What seven special collections of psalms can be identified in the Psalter? What psalm can be sung when we are afraid? This booklet gives me a winsome reminder and a powerful testimony to the multitude of information and blessing in the Bible's book of Psalms. I learned some new things and new ways of organizing the Psalms in my head. But even more important, this booklet helped me mine the spiritual riches of the Psalms, helping me to read and sing them with greater understanding and depth and giving me greater awe for our glorious God.’ Drew Gordon
