Miracle At The Higher Grounds Cafe

What if you could ask God anything? What would you ask, and how would He answer? Chelsea Chambers is on her own. After a public split from her NFL superstar husband, Chelsea takes a bold step out of the limelight and behind the counter of the Higher Grounds Café, an old-fashioned coffee shop in dire need of reinvention. But when her courage, expert planning, and out-of-this-world cupcakes fail to pay the bills, this newly single mom finds herself desperate for help. Better yet, a miracle. Then a curious stranger lands on Chelsea’s doorstep, and with him, an even more curious string of events. Soon, customers are flocking to the Higher Grounds Café, and not just for the cupcakes and cappuccino. They’ve come for the internet connection to the divine. Now the café has become the go-to place for people in search of answers to life’s biggest questions. When a catastrophe strikes and her ex comes calling, Chelsea begins to wonder if the whole universe is conspiring against her quest to make it on her own.

This book, with each psalm paraphrased in the English of today, presents something old in a new and fresh way. If you already love the Psalms, this version will renew that love. On the other hand, if you find the Psalms repetitive and problematic in any way, this book may just change your mind. Those who seldom look at the Psalms these days will be pleasantly surprised to read, understand, and even enjoy the way they are presented in Psalms Now. These psalms are written in everyday speech by someone who is a poet, a person of experience and wisdom, and, unlike nearly all other authors of books on the Psalms, a woman. Her adaptations of the Psalms have been called “beautiful” and “clear and strong.” They have been described as “flowing, coherent and convincing, and completely accessible” because they are written in “simple and yet helpful language.”
