Singing in the Reign: The Psalms and the Liturgy of God’s Kingdom

Christians know the Psalms, sing the Psalms, and pray the Psalms more than any other book of the Bible. Yet, even as believers have grown more devoted to individual psalms, they have lost the big picture—the single sense that unites all the psalms as one coherent book.

Barber shows how King David serves as an example for the chosen people as they struggled in exile.

In Reading the Sermons of Thomas Aquinas, Randall Smith guides the reader through Aquinas’s sermons, explaining their form and conte...
