Let us bless the Lord by Stephen B Dawes. Pub Inspire, pp 120,
ISBN 978 1 85852 287 6, £5.99
How well do you know Psalm 103? According to
Stephen Dawes, it is an ideal template for studying the Old Testament.
He takes as his starting point the belief that Christians do not
studying the Hebrew Scriptures half enough. Yet he acknowledges that
could be a daunting task and therefore presents a simple guide to this
part of the Bible in a step by step study of Psalm 103. His style of
writing is down to earth. Each section includes questions for discussion
that could be used in contexts where church culture still continues with
that sort of bible study group. There are some blank pages at the back
to record your own insights. Overall it is a simple little book, the
contents of which are worth a second look. However, I'd recommend Dawes
gets a more inspiring publisher if he really wants to communicate his
engaging style in a more contemporary way: looks and layout matter in
this visual age.
