Great conversation about synodality happening now with Kristin Colberg and Ormond Rush! https://t.co/xey2vLW8dm
Author(s): John F. Craghan, Catherine Upchurch
This study has 7 sessions, incorporating an introductory session and 6 lessons. The Study Set includes the Study Guide by Catherine Upchurch and a commentary, Psalms for All Seasons, by John F. Craghan. Note that the Psalms I study and the Psalm II study use the same commentary. Those planning to do both studies should order Study Sets for one of the studies, and order only the study guide for the subsequent study. It is recommended that Psalms I be studied prior to Psalms II.
The Book of the Psalms is a unique collection of the song-prayers of Israel. To study Psalms is to study prayer, ultimately to enter into prayer. The study will challenge participants to reflect on their own prayer and life experiences. Psalms I focuses on a selection of twenty-eight psalms divided into three categories: Psalms of Descriptive Praise, Psalms of Trust or Confidence, and Wisdom Psalms.
John F. Craghan is professor emeritus of religious studies at St. Norbert College in De Pere, Wisconsin. He is North American editor for Scripture in Church (Dominican Publications) and is the author of numerous books, including I Was Ill and You Cared for Me: Biblical Reflections on Serving the Physically and Mentally Impaired; Psalms for All Seasons; And the Life of the World to Come: Reflections on the Biblical Notion of Heaven; and The Gospels of the Weekday Lectionary, all published by Liturgical Press. Catherine Upchurch is the former director of Little Rock Scripture Study and the general editor of the Little Rock Catholic Study Bible. Catherine speaks and writes regularly on a variety of biblical and spiritual topics. She is the author of several books in the Alive in the Word series, including Mary: Favored by God; Christmas: Season of Wonder and Hope; and Hospitality: Welcoming the Stranger. She is also a contributor to Give Us This Day published by Liturgical Press.
