Prayers from the Darkness: The Difficult Psalms

Prayers from the Darkness: The Difficult Psalms

by Lyn Fraser (Author)

Synopsis

The difficult psalms which amount to more than a third of the Psalter, shock us with their cries of pain, anger, and alienation. They call on God for revenge on their enemies and mercy for themselves. Lyn Fraser, following the lead of Old Testament theologian Walter Brueggemann, shows how to integrate these psalms of disorientation in Sunday morning worship, pastoral care, and any situation of extreme need.
