At the time of his execution by the Nazis in 1945, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was not quite forty years old. Yet already his influence as a theologian was felt not only in Germany, but throughout the world. His interactions with the Psalms reveal a passionate heart and brilliant mind grappling with the Bible's eternal truths and their application to human nature and temporal realities.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Meditations on Psalms is vintage Bonhoeffer: eloquent, incisive, encouraging, challenging. Bonhoeffer invites us to find in the Psalms both a path toward rest in God and a call to Christ-like living and practical action as followers of the Lord Jesus.
