Psalms- Interlude

Several years ago, Bono, lead singer of U2 wrote to the publishers of Eugene Peterson’s MESSAGE translation of the Bible.  Bono especially admired the Psalms translation:  the everyday, earthy language that Peterson used.

A meeting between the two men was set up.   You can watch their conversation here.   [If you want to read a Psalm for this week you could read Psalm 40 which is referenced in their conversation];
