Show Notes:36. Heath Adamson — Writing with David and the Psalms

Heath joins me to talk about his new book, Grace in the Valley: Awakening to God’s Presence When He Feels Far Away. The book takes a contemplative and personal look at David’s most famous Psalm, Psalm 23.

We discuss how the Psalms have impacted Heath’s life as a believer and as a writer. What does it look like to spend years reflecting on a single passage of scripture and how can David and the Psalms shape us as writers.

Heath offers advice to writers about voice, discipline, and the value of reading.


  • Domes, pastries, paintings and our last day in Paris.
  • Germany was great. And I do love Paris.
  • Come all the way to Germany and found out my friend @karlvaters was speaking to German pastors twenty minutes away. The world is small.
  • Ashley and I are spending the week in Germany doing work with The Warriors Journey. TWJ is doing amazing work with the military community stationed here.
  • There have been intense negotiations in my house about getting a new dog. I have been arguing that we wait till summer… so we got one in last week. Charlotte got Lucy for her seventh birthday this weekend.
