Got Mine Today!

I just received my copy of Michael Bushell's Songs of Zion, and look forward to reading it on my near coming plane travel.

The book which persuaded me of exclusive psalmody; while I have read plenty of others, nothing beats this. Enjoy.

It is great that more and more Christians - especially outside traditionally EP denominations - are turning back to the Psalter.

It's a secret, Todd.

Maybe someone will contact you? Sorry, Brother. I just wanted to proclaim my new acquisition (i.e. rub it in the faces of all the other who have so persistently sought after it).

Let's just put it this way: I was on a waiting list.

Amen to that! I decidedly do not hold to EP, for a variety of exegetical and Redemptive-Historical reasons. But I am very glad to be worshiping in a PCA congregation that, in addition to a couple hymns each week, more often than not actually sings just as many or often more Psalms as well.

That is encouraging to hear. Even if you are not EP, there is much benefit in singing the Psalms.
