Psalm 23: A Shepherd for Broken Sheep Like Me

HEAR HIS VOICE. PSALM: FEEL HIS PRESENCE. LET HIM WORK. TASTE HIS LOVE.

What are the first three words of Psalm 23? Easy–right? The LORD is …. What are the last three? They may not be as familiar, but they’re just as awesome: …the LORD forever. Now, put the first three and last three together. The LORD is the LORD forever. He was, he still is, and he always will be … near.

Have you ever drudged through the muck and mire that comes with chronic fatigue? Ever needed to mend from a broken spirit, stare down the prospect of death, or tiptoe across the landmines of a hostile environment? How many enemies do you have? What do you do with them? Are you sure of your eternal destiny? Psalm 23 can help.

Psalm 23: A Shepherd for Broken Sheep Like Me explores the beauty of this precious psalm and the secret to David’s peace of mind. Dan Winkler uses a unique blend of humor, personal transparency, and a fresh, well-researched view of Psalm 23.

“Dan Winkler has provided us with an absolute gem. Anchored in the beloved Psalm 23, but richly illustrated with other psalms, events from David’s life, and examples from the author’s own experience, this volume betrays a lifetime of reflection on our Shepherd. Among the topics addressed are anxiety, fear, frustration, confusion, and pain. Few are as qualifed by the strugles of life as Dan, and few could submit such a devotional masterpiece. This volume will bless your life.”
