2 – Psalm 22

“Praise the Lord!” This three-word exhortation begins and ends the last five psalms in the Psalter. Why is praise important, and how can we join the psalmist in praise, seeing the world as he also sees it? This sixth and concluding session of our study of the Psalms addresses these questions.

What should you do when you are anxious or afraid? The answer Psalm 121 offers is very similar to what we experience in our Anglican liturgy. When we feel afraid, we look away from what troubles us, we lift up our eyes and hearts to God, and we take refuge in the One who promises to keep us.

Jesus said the poor in spirit, the pure in heart, and the peacemakers will experience true happiness, yet those who seem to be having the best life often care little about what Jesus has to say. Why are we tempted to lose faith in the promise of Jesus? If you have ever found yourself wondering, then Psalm 73 is here to anchor you.

In a time of deep disagreements, conflicting facts, and moral confusion, where can we turn for guidance? In this session, we turn to Psalm 19. Through this psalm we discover what it means to attend to God, hear his voice, and have our troubled souls healed by his wise and comforting words.

Philosophers say that we live in a therapeutic culture that invests its time and money into therapy, but neglects the therapy that God himself has provided for us in Holy Scripture. In this session, we discuss how psalms offer therapy to our souls, both by diagnosing what ails our hearts and minds and also by offering a cure.
