Encouraging & Uplifting
This book is not an in-depth commentary. Instead, it is more of a devotional. However, it is a good one. Robinson will help you see and experience this familiar psalm in a fresh, new way that will continue long after you have finished reading. You will dig into the Bible, reflect on your own experiences, and appreciate the heart of your Shepherd. Most of all, you will understand that you can trust the Shepherd's goodness throughout each season of your life.

A quick read but full of insights from Psalm 23. I enjoyed it and learned somethings that helped to clarify this passage of scripture.

[Debbie · Rating 5 out of 5]

"Trusting the Shepherd" is a devotional study of Psalm 23 that is 13 sections/chapters long. Each short devotional (about 6 pages long) gave background information to the verse to help us understand how the original audience would have understood the words and then tied that into our walk with God today. The author pointed out some things that I've found to be very true but I don't hear talked about by preachers or in books, and I appreciated that. I'd highly recommend using this as a devotional.
