About four weeks ago, I submitted the manuscript for my commentary on Psalms 73-89 to Everett Gossard, the book editor for the Pentecostal Resources Group, UPCI. On November 6, the Executive Publication Committee met and discussed the possibility of publishing the second volume of The Messiah in the Psalms: Discovering Christ in Unexpected Places. The committee provisionally approved the manuscript, contingent on their review of the entire manuscript once it is finished.
This volume will consist of my research and commentary on Psalms 73-106, Books 3 and 4 of the five books within the Psalter. The third volume will cover Psalms 107-150, the fifth and final book within the Book of Psalms.
Since submitting the manuscript, I have finished my work on Psalms 90 and 91. It has been my goal to complete all the psalms through Psalm 106 by the end of this year. I’m realizing this may not be possible. If not, I have prayed to be able reach this goal by the end of January in hopes of getting this second volume published by the time of the 2025 general conference of the United Pentecostal Church International in St. Louis, my home town.
I deeply appreciate the opportunity to participate in the writing ministry. I love the Book of Psalms and pray that God would give me the ability to rightly divide the word of truth and to understand how the Scriptures speak of Him.
