This is such a different look at what might well be the most over used Psalm in the Bible. Many of us just repeat the words we memorized when we were young. This book taught me there is sooooo much more in 23 Psalm. This book is amazing.
This book helps us relate the shepherd and the sheep to the Father and us. There are so many incredible things that we have incommon with sheep...great one day read!
I will never look at Psalm 23 the same after reading this book! It is a must read for all Christians. The author's perspective from a shepherd's viewpoint is so enlightening and creative. My teenage children loved hearing about what the sheep were up to every chapter!
At first sight, this book apears to be a quick light read. It is anything but quick and light. It reminds us on our dependence on God and his love and protection.
