- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you don’t like breaking things down in detail, you might as well turn away now, don’t soil this book by leaving a bad review simply because you don’t have the attention span to sit through something that takes a little peace and patience to get through.
For those who can appreciate the “long winded explanations”, this worthwhile book is a treasure.1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5"The Lord is my shepherd," starts the 23rd Psalm. And then it goes from there.It was because of this first line, though, that the Australian shepherd, Phillip Keller, decided to take a look at what this was all about, and what it meant to him, as a shepherd.Keller is admittedly a layperson when it comes to great theological mysteries, so instead of delving into the deep significance of cups runneth-ing over, he instead looks at it in a more simple light.If you are interested in biblical studies, and would like to augment your understanding of the 23rd Psalm, then this book may be of interest to you.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book changed the way I perceived God. I knew in my head that God would never discard me, that salvation is by grace and not works, but through this book, God made that idea real to my heart. My love for Him abounds with no reservations.

Blessings! - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Unique insights from the actual shepherd-sheep relationship and how this relates to the enduring words of Psalm 23.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5This is the first book in a long time that I picked up and just could not force myself to finish reading. It started with a lot of convoluted trinitarian thinking and launched into a very tedious breakdown of Psalm 23, phrase by phrase..where even the most basic ideas required long winded explanations to prove.
