Heart Aflame: Daily Readings from Calvin on the Psalms

Price: $14.99

Click here for 5 Sample Readings

Page Count: 384

John Calvin described the Psalms as “an anatomy of all the parts of the soul.” That description is an apt one, says Sinclair B. Ferguson in the foreword to this volume, “since every experience, every emotion, all the heights and depths, all the joys and sorrows, all the mysteries of human life, are here.”

These select readings from Calvin’s Commentary on the Psalms provide us with a year’s worth of sure-footed daily meditations. Calvin wrote as one whose own experience is mirrored in the Psalms. Here we witness his remarkable knack for seeing the real issues, particularly how Christ is the focus of all of Scripture.

Psalm 100 “Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.” ESV
