I have read through the Psalms many times and yet never like this! John Greco’s reflections on each psalm brought new joy and life into these words I already love so much. He offers wisdom, context, and gospel-centered perspective. Greco earnestly points back to Jesus with each entry, all the while balancing an understanding of our humanness with the everlasting power of who God is. If you are looking for an intriguing way to read through the Psalms, this book is for you. A must read!

Although the book of Psalms can be overly familiar terrain for many, in The Ascent John Greco guides us up a mountain of sorts to view the Psalms with fresh perspective. Greco highlights connections to other portions of Scripture to help the reader feel the heartbeat of God.

Fresh, honest, and insightful, The Ascent is like taking a tour with a wise and encouraging friend. Even if you’ve read the Psalms a hundred times, John will show you things you’ve never seen before.
