From the Back Cover
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want..." provides comfort and peace to all who read Psalm 23. The words of this beloved Psalm come alive with Scripture in this lovely gift book inspired by W. Philip Keller’s classic bestseller A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23.
About the Author
The late W. Phillip Keller was born in East Africa and always loved the out-of-doors. He was trained in agronomy and subsequently spent many years on ranches in British Columbia. He lived among and observed sheep and their relationship to the shepherd. Out of this rich, practical experience, came the best-selling book from which this book was excerpted.

The Best Book on Psalm 23
This is the best book on Psalm 23, an excellent presentation, very easy to read. I think that I have read almost all the major books and papers on Psalm 23 (commentaries, sermons, critical books, papers, and on Shepherd Motif/Imagery) but I still felt to hit a wall to preach Psalm 23 for a long time until this book. The author truly breaks the wall for me to open my eyes to see and preach Psalm 23 and Shepherd in the Bible. Also I provide this book as a required reading for our discipleship and leadership training for last 15 years (and I think that I have bought already a few hundred copies and the other editions including "Phillip Keller: The Inspirational Writings") to my fellow Christians to appreciate Psalm 23.
Great book, very comforting
This book became one of my favorites. Keller's agricultural background gives him the ability to metaphor animals and humans and show how they relate to the Creator. I have kept this book near-by over the years and go back to it often. You can't really add anything to Psalm 23 but Keller's way of explaining it is appreciated and comforting. I would want this book with me if stranded on an island.
my favorite book!
this book has wonderful illustrations of a shepherd caring for his sheep. you cannot help but understand Gods love for us by the insights of the 23 psalm. if you love animals and nature, you will love this book. it will give you better understanding of how God cares/loves us! i have even used this book in sunday school, the kids love the pictures.
