Book excerpt: Have you reached a point of darkness in your life that has taken away your ability to have hope for your future? Have you seemingly been sentenced to a dark prison cell due to illness, depression, addiction, or your own sin? David, a man after God's own heart, experienced such times in his walk with God. Not only was his life one of extreme ups and downs, he was capable of communicating the realness of his experiences and feelings to God like no other figure in the Bible. Whether David was soaring on the heights of a military victory or despairing for his life, he never stopped talking to God with an unrestricted honesty and depth. This is the way that God wants us to talk with Him, real and raw. The Psalms reflect the way to commune with the loving Father. New Psalms and Other Thoughts embodies this desire. Royalties from the sale of the book will be donated to the Edgewood Children's Ranch in Orlando, Florida.
