Songs of the Heart for .ePub

Author, Dimensions, & Description
Author: Joan Chittister, OSB
The psalms in this book, all pieces of poetry and music,
have profound meaning for us today. If it is true,
that “The history of a people is found in its songs,”
(George Jelinek), this spiritual history of the House
of Israel is our history as well. And, the psalms express
the history of any living human being in search of the living God.

on 30 psalms, each offering a spiritual oasis away
from the stresses of a world that demands more
attention than the human soul can sometimes bear.
Her hope is that readers, in praying and reflecting on the psalms,
may find new meaning at the core of life and make songs of their own.
This is great spiritual reading for all who long to break
open the psalms and pray with them more attentively.
REVIEW
As always with Sr. Joan, her prayers and reflections
in Songs of the Heart are at once searing, challenging,
and deeply moving. I came away with new love and respect
for the psalms as a way to enter the heart of God more deeply.
