This past week I presented a paper to the Free Lutheran Seminary Symposium in Plymouth, MN. Below is an edited selection from that paper. ~Pastor Schultz Praying the Psalms Together The Psalms are unique in scripture. That is because the Book of Psalms is a prayer book. Dietrich Bonhoeffer wrote, “It is at fist very surprising that there is a prayer book in the Bible. The Holy Scripture is the Word of God to us. But prayers are the words of men.” Certainly, there are many prayers throughout the Bible, however, an entire book of prayers is very noteworthy because the Psalms form a single unified book of prayer that not only teaches believers how to pray but encourages you to make the prayers your own.
