Excerpt from page 7:
“Whether crying out in agony, complaining with bitterness, begging for deliverance, or praising with joy, the psalmists consistently accepted God’s invitation to bold prayer. Whether desperate with need or bursting with thanks, they didn’t hold anything back.”
“Although I was raised in a church of deeply committed Christians, I can’t recall hearing a fellow believer utter a gut-wrenching cry for divine help until I was well into my twenties. Good Presbyterians just didn’t pray like that”
I’m only on page 7 and I get a feeling this book only gets better!
