Peter sets up his weighty excursus with an equally weighty greeting, calling his audience “elect exiles of the dispersion.” Give the sermon a listen and dive into this new series with us.

Psalm 12, like many of the Psalms we’ve covered this Summer, is a lament and it teaches us “even when wickedness seems to prevail, God will guard the poor and needy.”

Psalm 11 is short but intense. Read carefully, it can teach us that our confidence in the face of evil is solely in who God is, what he has done, and who that makes us. Check it out.

This week we jumped into Psalm 10 and talked about how God’s people lament that this world does not look like the Kingdom of God and yet trust in His promises that it one day will.

“I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart; I will recount all of your wonderful deeds.I will be glad and exult in you;I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.”

Psalm 8 teaches us that truly living into the Story of God and glorifying him means embracing our weakness and finding our supreme satisfaction in him alone.

Mike Wilcox joined us this still and  taught on Psalm 7. We were given a great opportunity to pause and reflect: “Am I trusting God amidst all the chaos?” Give it a listen.

Psalm 6 is a Psalm of Lament and teaches us, amongst other things, that, “God graciously forgives us and helps us even when our own sins cause our circumstances.”

This week’s Psalm dealt w/God’s righteous judgment. We had to dive deep into some heavy theology but it further exposed the true beauty of the gospel of grace we have in Jesus. Give it a listen.
