A Psalm a Day brings these short commentaries together guiding the reader through each passage of the Psalter with a daily meditation. While the Book of Psalms-a collection of songs prayers and meditations on mans relationship with God-has inspired and comforted the faithful for over 2000 years revisiting this Old Testament book during the first of the UKs lockdowns provided much hope and focus for Nugée and for fellow members of his bible study group.Alongside these analyses of the psalms each day is marked with a diary entry taking the reader through the first five months of change as COVID-19 struck.
