Psalm 30

South Suburban Church

Psalm 30

August 27, 2023 • Bob Dettmer • Psalm 30

Psalm 30 is different from most of the other psalms this summer in that it is written for a specific occasion. Verse 0 tells us that it is a 'song at the dedication of the temple'. Reading through multiple commentaries, there are at least four possibilities for this idea of a temple dedication. More than just the mystery of the context, Psalm 30 reminds us that God is worthy of our praise, he allows pain in our lives to draw us closer to Him, and he desires to shower us with His favor and joy. Join us on Sunday as we explore and examine this wonderful psalm of King David.

August 11 Service - The Sounds of Silence

August 11, 2024 • Mike Strand • Psalm 39

This week we’ll be in Psalm 39 as we consider the span of our lives. Is it possible to be so heavenly minded that we’re no earthly good, or does God want us to focus on eternity here as well? David gives us a picture this week of how to consider our earthly lives, and reminds us once again to bring everything we have to God.

August 4 Service - The Sickness of Sin

August 4, 2024 • Mike Strand • Psalm 38

This week, we’ll be in Psalm 38 as we see David’s reflections on the implications of his sin. What is the connection between sickness and sin? Do we get sick today because of sins we commit? Join us Sunday as we discuss this topic and see how God can use even sickness to bring Him glory!
