The Sinner's Psalter: Love letters to God (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798304059725)

These poems muse on the significance of God's action in the world, his work upon the individual soul, and his loving presence everywhere. We can recognize the realities of sin, repentance, redemption, healthy fear of God, hope, and grace.

The poems search for meaning in the way that God has revealed himself in the book of psalms, but in the light of the New Testament understanding of redemption. Through this searching and exploration, God shows himself to be, not just a victorious Lord, but a passionate lover, a father, a victim, and a cunning strategist.

In capturing the spirit of the psalms in a new way, the poems become meditations on the experience of the spiritual battle, played out in the life of the Christian soldier who struggles to follow the narrow way, always aware of his moral weakness, but also of God's astonishing mercy, and the glorious culmination of the journey in heaven.
