July 30, 2023 • Andrew Murch

Psalm 55:1-23 | Andrew Murch | "Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved." Written by King David, Psalm 55 is a prayer-song born out of a season of incredible suffering and anguish. Throughout the psalm, David cries to and pleads with God. Here, we see the reality that God's people, even in the midst of hardship, can call on their God.

Don’t Trust Your Gut

Psalm 56:1-13 | Nathan Noorlun | "In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?" Captured by the Philistines, David calls out to God in a prayer saturated with confidence and hope in God. Here, we see that, although oppressed and imprisoned, the hope of God's people is in God himself.

God’s Got You Covered

Psalm 91:1-16 | Joshua Ryan Butler | "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty." It is a wonderful thing to find oneself under the shadow of God's redemptive refuge and protection. For the author of Psalm 91, it cause him to glorify God and meditate on the reality of life lived in the presence of God.

We Are Not Alone

August 20, 2023 • Andrew Murch • Psalm 19

Psalm 19:1-14 | Andrew Murch | When you are awed by Mt. Hood, moved by the tides on Cannon Beach, or blown away in the Gorge, you are hearing the symphony of God’s creation declaring his glory. When you read his Word, you are learning from the conductor how and why the notes that are played. When you cry out to him and receive redemption, you learn to play the instrument he has assigned to you.
