About the Book

In the summer of 2020, while composing a series of devotionals on the Psalms for their church, the Double Love Experience, authors Gabby Cudjoe-Wilkes and Andrew Wilkes recognized that these ancient words spoke truth and inspiration not only to their immediate community, but also to the growing number of people doing the holy, demanding work of pursuing justice, undoing structural racism, and building a society that truly values Black lives. The Psalms speak power today as they always have. They have spoken across generations. They have bridged cultural divides and social contexts with their emotional rawness, urge towards justice, and blunt candor about the coarse edges of walking with God. Psalms for Black Lives includes thirty devotions, each containing a psalm, a reflection, and an invitation for the reader to develop a justice imagination through further engagement with the text. Psalms for Black Lives also includes daily discussion questions to support small-group study and a guide for congregational and community groups who want to embody the words of the Psalms together.

Review :
Avery*Sunshine, BET Award nominee and Billboard chart-topping artist "In this introspective daily study of the book of Psalms, Pastors Gabby and Andrew successfully address the concerns of our people, help us unpack our feelings around injustices, give voice to the shared feelings of the collective and challenge us to be bold in envisioning life, and our lives, differently. This is the liberating Bible study that I've longed for and love to share." Risë Nelson, Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at Yale University Library "Pastors Gabby and Andrew have made this offering from and of love as a reminder of who you and we are. It is an invitation to renew your faith in God and in the power of our community. It is a confirmation of God's plan for each of us and of God's promise to be with us in our challenges and our victories. With and through this offering, may you find peace, safety, inspiration, courage, joy, and faith!"
