Psalm 137:1-9 | Mike Clarensau | "By the waters of Babylon, there we sat down and wept, when we remembered Zion." From the humiliation of exile comes a prayer sung by the ancient Israelites. As they remember the glory and prosperity of their ancestors, God's people call on God to remember their affliction and those afflicting them.

September 3, 2023 • Nathan Noorlun • Psalm 56
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.

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.
