Launch a lifetime of loving the Psalms

I recently used this book to lead a small group study on how to read the Psalms. It's the right book for such an introductory study, because it handles the important subject of genre in a very approachable way. Futato then unpacks the differences between psalms of lament, praise and thanksgiving. But it isn't dry academic analysis. These poems are full of feeling, and the book really helps you understand the emotions of the author--and how to express your own emotions to God. Futato walks you through the poetry so you can both understand it and enjoy it. Thus equipped, our group was then able to study other psalms and draw out the meaning of the text and the message God intends to teach us. Well done!

Insightful

Having taken a course from Dr. Futato, I have a great respect for his insight and love for the Lord. I highly recommend both "Joy Comes in the Morning" and "Transformed by Praise." Both give an insightful and worshipful look at the Psalm, with TbP being more focused on the structure of the book of Psalms as a whole. If you read just one, read "Transformed by Praise." However, you will benefit greatly from both books.
