Scripture: Psalm 118
Description: To commemorate the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, we decided to work through Psalm 118, the favorite psalm of Martin Luther. And it isn't difficult to see why he loved this psalm so much.

Title: Steadfast Love
Scripture: Psalm 90

Title: My Portion Forever
Scripture: Psalm 73
Description: Everyone experiences envy. No one enjoys what that feels like. But how do we overcome our tendency to envy the good things other people enjoy? This psalm helps us see that envy always comes from overvaluing what other people have, and from undervaluing what it is to have God's presence in your life.

Title: Rejoicing in Vengeance?
Scripture: Psalm 58
Description: This psalm is one of many that pray for the destruction of Israel's enemies. If you don't live with enemies close at hand, psalms like these can be hard to connect with. And given the brutal language, psalms like these can seem totally out of step with Jesus's call to love your enemies and pray for your persecutors. How should we respond to prayers like these? Should we rejoice in vengeance?
Date: 08/27/17
Speaker: Matt McCullough
Title: Wealth and Wisdom
