The Psalms have long been known as both the hymnbook and prayerbook of God’s people. Yet many Christians today aren’t sure how to engage them in this way. Join David Wollen and special guest Dan Wilt on The Great Stories Podcast for a series called “How the Psalms Lead Us in Prayer.”

Sheltering Mercy: Prayers Inspired by the Psalms
Prayers Echoing the Heart of the Psalms
Sheltering Mercy offers a lyrical collection of prayers inspired by the first 75 psalms of the Bible. Rather than translating Scripture, authors Ryan Whitaker Smith and Dan Wilt have thoughtfully composed poetic responses that draw from the themes, imagery, and emotional depth of each psalm. These meditative prayers are written in harmony with Scripture—inviting readers into deeper communion with God and offering a place of refuge in life’s storms. A fresh way to engage the Psalms, this beautifully-illustrated book guides readers to pray these ancient songs with deep reflection and reverence.
