Praying the Psalms with the Holy Fathers
$12.95

Would you like some unique perspectives on the Psalms? Why not get them from our Supreme Pontiffs! The publishers of this great book invite us to “rediscover the Psalms in the good company of popes, past and present.” Peter Celano has compiled some uplifting and thoughtful reflections on various psalms from Pope St. Leo the Great, Pope St. Gregory the Great, John Paul II and Benedict XVI, among others. Mr. Celano also includes verses from the Psalms covered here as well, and a good guide to them.

 Don’t forget that Our Lord Himself prayed the Psalms and they are an important part of the Liturgy of the Hours, the prayer of the Church, and as such are as relevant today as they were when they were composed over 2000 years ago. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Psalms, this book provides an easy-to-follow introduction to their richness. And those who are more familiar with them will find some fresh perspectives for their own prayerful meditations. Why study and pray the Psalms? As Pope St. Pius X said, as quoted in this book, “The Collection of Psalms found in Scripture, composed as it was under Divine inspiration, has, from the very beginnings of the Church, shown a wonderful power of fostering devotion among Christians.” 107 pp.; Paperback
