The Psalms: Distilled in Verse

Jan Christophersen is a devout Episcopalian poet who has spent much time on and off retreat condensing the Psalms into rhymed verses that capture the pith of meaning for the modern reader. Long enlightening fellow parishioners of Church of the Servant in Wilmington, North Carolina, her Psalms, Distilled in Verse are here collected for the first time, to be read alone or along with the original versions from the Bible. They are helpful to prayer as well as study; as Jan says, "When you don't know what to pray, let the psalms say it for you."
