Superb!! (0/0 people found this helpful)
Now I have a clearer understanding of what Psa 23 is all about!! No wonder it's one of the world's fav. passages even if they don't really know God, they know about Psa 23 =)
Highly recommended!! It gives a good insight plus understanding it makes it so much more relevant to this very age!!
Psalm 23 explored (13/13 people found this helpful)
Psalm 23 is probably one of the most familiar Bible passages, right up there with John 3:16. "The Lord is my shepherd..." Perhaps it is too familiar. Have we become so accustomed to hearing it that we have forgotten the wonderful promise it contains?
Traveling Light is a verse-by-verse exploration of Psalm 23, brought to life by comparing us to travelers weighed down with excess spiritual baggage. Each chapter identifies a different burden that we may be carrying in our life: flawed views of God, self-reliance, discontent, weariness, worry, hopelessness, guilt, arrogance, facing death, grief, fear, loneliness, shame, disappointment, envy, doubt and the longing for heaven.
This walk through the 23rd Psalm reminds and encourages us to take God at His word and release those burdens to Him. As usual, Lucado supports his material with plenty of scripture, sharp analogies and just the right amount of humor. For added impact, be sure to work through the study guide at the end of the book. Then get ready to lose some luggage.

Easy, understandable, REFRESHING...... (8/8 people found this helpful)
......... What else can you ask for in a book!!
A most enjoybale book at a much needed time. Psalm 23 a psalm known by millions, but Max Lucado breaks it down and brings it back to life again. Written in an easy and understandable way, Max Lucando is one of the best Christian Authors of Present times.
This book was leant to me by a friend to read when things were hard and the burdens i was carrying were to much to bear.
I could not put the book down and completed it in a week.
The more i read the more i wanted to continue. Max Lucado brought out so many truths about the Lord as our King and shepheard, how he is there to carry our burdens, and how we need to learn to give our burdens to God, and travel light.
Psalm 23 will never mean the same to me again as now i have read this book it has been so refreshing and the most well known Psalm of all time now has a new and life changing meaning to me.
Brilliant Read! (3/3 people found this helpful)
Definitely my favourite Lucado book, well worth the read.
Max breaks Psalm 23 into specific verses and uses Scripture and personal stories to explain God's promises. Each chapter tackes a different issue such as guilt, fear, loneliness, worry and hopelessness and where to find answers to such issues in the Word.

Max Lucado brings God's love and grace to life as he helps unpack the burdens of living using Psalm 23. Every chapter is relevant, regardless of where you are in your walk with God, and the last paragraph of the final burden will make you cry... with joy. Simple, effective, beautiful.
