The author Paula Gooder allows the reader to engage with the Psalms in depth, satisfying all the many hungers that arise during their study, prayer, and chanting.

It serves as a thought for prayer and reflection on the Psalms with ample space for notes. In this beautifully designed, hardcover journal, theologian Paula Gooder guides readers through fifteen favorite Psalms, offering understanding and advice on how to pray and reflect on some of the deepest poetry of the Hebrew Scriptures.

After a brief introduction to the history and context of each, Paula invites readers to pause and contemplate the Psalm as a whole, before focusing on interesting elements and posing questions that enhance their understanding of God and themselves. She selects some of the most beloved Psalms for the journal, including Psalms 1, 23, 42, 88, 139, 145, 150. Lined pages are situated opposite each Psalm, with space for notes after each question.

This journal could make a perfect gift for Easter or be used during Lent, either personally or as a study resource for a group.

The book "Journalling the Psalms" won the "Devotional/Gift Book of the Year" award at the Christian Resources Together Awards in 2022.
