A readable and powerful call, by a leading Old Testament scholar,
to pray with and through the Psalms. Walter Brueggemann pushes his
readers to recognize the full gamut of passions reflected in the
Psalms: joy and exultation but also disappointment, sorrow, anger,
resentment, even the desire for vengeance. We are invited into a
daring relationship with the God who calls us to pray with honesty.
In the spiritual classic readers are guided into a thoughtful and
prayerful encounter with God through the Psalms. This new edition
includes a thoroughly revised text, new notes and new bibliography.
In Praying the Psalms, Brueggemann carefully guides us away from
the bland colours of contemporary culture and into the ancient and
extreme world of praise and lament. This is essential reading. Ian
Stackhouse Senior Pastor, Guildford Baptist Church
Explores the book of Lamentations and its meaning for faith and
ministry today. The five poems that comprise Lamentations tell of
the community's pain in the aftermath of Jerusalem's destruction.

"Smith's sage advice will aid Christians in recognizing the simple
joys of practicing their faith."--Publishers Weekly Western culture
is in a tailspin, and Christian faith is entangled in it: we do
kingdom things in empire ways. Western approaches to faith leave us
feeling depressed, doubting, anxious, and burned out. We know
something is wrong with the way we do faith and church in the West,
but we're so steeped in it that we don't know where to begin to
break old habits. Popular pastor and speaker Mandy Smith invites us
to be unfettered from the deeply ingrained habits of Western
culture so we can do kingdom things in kingdom ways again. She
explores how we can be transformed by new postures and habits that
help us see God already at work in and around us. The way forward
isn't more ideas, programs, and problem-solving but in Jesus's
surprising invitation to the kingdom through childlikeness.
Ultimately, rediscovering childlike habits is a way for us to
remember how to be human. Unfettered helps us reimagine how to
follow God with our whole selves again and join with God's mission
in the world. Foreword by Walter Brueggemann.
