Dedication
I dedicate A Psalm for Every Season to Dr. Lawrence Larry Bradshaw, my class advisor, my English and creative writing instructor, and a committed Christian who modeled Jesus with his lips and his life. Mr. Bradshaws enthusiasm for my writing potential and his prompting me to express my ideas on paper extended even to his writing a letter to my parents, Ralph and Crene Fleagle, so they would be cheerleaders to motivate me to make my writings public. His influence, more than any other person, enhanced my compositions and emboldened me to publish.

About the Author

Foreword
I have known Pastor Arnold R. Fleagle personally for many years. This accomplished preacher and writer is, most importantly, a shepherd who deeply cares for the people Jesus died to save. We know this firsthand by his tender care of my family through many hours, prayers and visits to the hospital as we held on tight to loved ones. I am honored to say I know him as a real and genuine friend, and I am honored to write the following words about his book A Psalm for Every Season .
The Psalms were the Jewish songbook, the first hymnal, if you will. As a gospel singer, I have been drawn to the Psalms my whole life. To sing your faith is a wonderful gift. Gods people sing! We do not stop with laments and cries for help. No, ultimately all things lead to praise, thanksgiving and singing because of our wonderful Savior! Oh, what a Savior He is.
