A Turbulent Peace: The Psalms for Our Time

Many people have found comfort and inspiration in the Psalms. Still others have heard that they should seek inspiration in the Psalms, but they have not sensed the comfort that others experienced. In A Turbulent Peace, Ray Waddle helps readers discover the comfort and the inspiration of the Psalms, particularly in light of the anxieties and stresses of living today. A Turbulent Peace inspires readers who hunger for stimulating perspective on the Bible and our own times. The meditations on each of the 150 Psalms penetrate the biblical background and help us apply biblical wisdom to personal belief and to public trends. Combining devotional insight with scholarly study, Ray Waddle invites readers to take a fresh look at the Psalms and see that, through the poetic and sometimes turbulent imagery, God speaks clearly to our contemporary conditions. Waddle’s reflections will appeal to believers and to spiritual seekers who want to explore religious literature.
