Rating:  Summary: Refreshing Review: Max Lucado has produced another fine peace of work "Safe in the Shepherd's Arms" This peace of work is absolutely refreshing, and it is a great look at the 23rd Psalm and what it means. At times the 20th Century Christian can loose focus and get caught up in a tidal wave of emotions, stress, and pressure, however it is comforting to know, as this book expresses, that in Christ there is always hope, that when the day ends...Christ is always there. While there were a few statements and scriptures that were not used in the right context, it was not enough for me to put down the book, the overall work of the book was encouraging, thought provoking, and inspiring.

Rating:  Summary: Blessed assurance - He is the ultimate Shepherd! Review: What a new and wonderful perspective Max Lucado shares with us on the always-known and frequently-recited 23rd Psalms. But what fresh insight... even for those of us who have heard it all our lives! He takes each verse of this marvelous and beloved text, and dives deep between each phrase, even each word, to uncover meaning we likely never considered before. A breath of fresh air has been given to an ancient but living Word. I don't think David could have said it more succinctly. I read this little gem on an airplane (which was having considerable trouble with turbulence) and felt completely comforted. We could all use a refresher course in feeling safe in the Shepherd's arms! Delightful!
