“[Anneke Kaai] tastes some of the drama and much of the goodness we anticipate in Christ. We, in turn, receive her work best by letting it stir up in us not merely appreciation for her form and style, but also deep longing for the goodness of the Lord.” John Witvliet, Calvin Institute of Christian Worship In this inspirational, high-quality, full-colour gift book, 45 expressive paintings are shown and described alongside words from Eugene H Peterson’s The Message rendition of the biblical Psalms. This is a resource that leads readers and viewers into worship, prayer and meditation. Twenty-five of these paintings have previously featured in The Psalms: An Artist’s Impression (1999). Twenty new paintings from Kaai’s latest series, ‘In Relationship with God’, have been added to the original Psalms series in this publication to express an even wider range of emotions and life experiences.
