The Book of Psalms is a unique collection of 150 song-prayers of Israel.  The original melodies have been lost to history, but the lyrics have been prayed to new melodies continuously by the Church through the ages.
​
In this presentation, Mr. Steve Picard talks about what makes these prayers so special, why they should be important to us, which ones were special to the Church in the past and which are favored today, and how we might appropriate these biblical prayers as our own.

With an M.A. in Theology from Loyola Marymount University and certification from the Catholic Bible Institute, Steve Picard's primary theological interest is the study and praying of Sacred Scripture. He also serves as an instructor for the Los Angeles Catholic Bible Institute and for 25 years has coordinated the bible study in his home parish of St. Jerome.
