Six Wednesdays with the Psalms
Not all the Psalms of course! But enough to get us into the most human and possibly the most spiritually fruitful, part of the Bible. This study begins on Wednesday, April 14th, through to May 19th. Please let Don Ross know of your interest so that an order can be placed for an inexpensive guide – Spirituality of the Psalms by Walter Brueggemann.
