I can’t pretend to understand Amazon pricing, but I can recognize a bargain when I see one. Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer, Volume II is currently on sale for $6.83 on Amazon.com. That’s slightly less than half price.
Low Rez PsalmsVol2SEAl
Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer, Volume II recently won the 2022 Devotional Book of the Year Award from The Word Guild. Perhaps that’s why it’s being featured. 

The other two volumes in the three-volume set remain at the regular price. 

As an author I believe the endorsement from Phil Callaway is an added blessing:

I’m not certain I’d be alive without the Psalms. While my wife was losing her family to Huntington’s disease, we lived in its inspiring pages. We still do. David’s devotional is a welcome companion on this journey, particularly for those needing a fresh shot of hope.

The main body parts for reading the Bible aren’t the eyes and brain; it’s the hands and feet. This theme is woven throughout Psalms 365. As it should be! The focus on living the Word, or as James puts it, “doing it” (James 1:25) is what makes this study in the Psalms top-notch.
