Christ in the Psalms

$17.95

by Fr Patrick Henry Reardon

At last, a series of meditations on the Psalms which avoids the sentimentality of most contemporary works, yet steers clear of the arid wasteland of modern higher critical academia. Lively, and highly devotional, this book sheds a world of insight upon the beloved Scriptures- the world of the Early Church,and of the Apostles themselves, who constantly used and referred to the Psalms in their own writings. Father Patrick Reardon is a convert from the Episcopal Church, a pastor, editor, writer, and educator, as well as an avid student of the Holy Scriptures. You will find his grasp of the Psalms, and his application to modern life via the lens of the Church's traditional understanding, both captivating and deeply convicting.

By Patrick Henry Reardon An excerpt from the Forward by Bishop Demetri of the Antiochian Archdiocese

Conciliar Press - The Psalms run like a golden thread through the beautiful garment of Orthodox worship. They form the core of Vespers, Matins and the other services of the Daily Office. They are found in the Divine Liturgy, Marriage and other Sacramental services of the Church. They provided the inspiration for many of the prayers and hymns of Orthodox worship. The Psalms are so important that ancient tradition has decreed that the entire Book of Psalms must be read every week during Daily Offices. In addition to inspiring the public prayer of the Church, the Psalms are an indispensable part of the private devotion of all who seek a closer relationship with God. The Rev. Father Patrick Reardon, Pastor of All Saints Orthodox Church in Chicago, Illinois, has done a great service to all who desire a deeper relationship with God by preparing these meditations on the Book of Psalms. Drawing on his long experience first as an Episcopal pastor and then as a priest of the Orthodox Church, Fr. Patrick has produced a work of depth and devotion. Thus I can recommend this book without hesitation. Those who study it will be edified by the scholarship and devotional quality of Fr. Patrick�s writings on this important subject. One will read it again and again, gaining each time new and nourishing perspectives on the Book of the Psalms.
