What People Are Saying

This is a beautiful little book. A kickstarter for Christ-centered prayer. This is for everyone who wants to pray like the first Christians prayed—and for everyone who wants to pray in the company of the first Christians.
David Scott
Author, The Love that Made Mother Teresa
What a joy to read the Psalms as they were read in the early Church. For us, as for the first Christians, the Psalms are a treasury of counsel for ordinary living, insight into the power of the sacraments, praise for God's glory and mercy, and love for his kingdom, which is the Catholic Church. The Fathers call King David to witness as they preach fidelity in marriage, kindness in speech, and even the mercies of purgatory. As we pray this book, we recognize that ancient Church as our own, and we raise our prayer in unison—no, in communion—with the saints of long ago, who are living still.
Scott Hahn
Professor of Scripture and Theology
The most beautiful book of the Bible together with the most beloved teachers in history. Another exquisite pairing from the deft hand of Mike Aquilina.
