The book of Psalms is one of the most beautiful pieces of poetry ever written. It engages us. It draws us in with its imagery, its raw emotion, and its mix of both problem and praise. The psalms feel like real life, and they model for us what it looks like to encounter God and experience His blessing and rule in our real lives at all times.
As we study the book, we will look at various types of psalms which will together give us a feel for the overall landscape of the book’s message and how it communicates that message. What we will see is that the psalms are not merely beautiful, but they are instructive for us, teaching us how we can communicate with God. In our study, we will find various different types of psalms, each of which offers a different example of what it might look like for us to meditate on God’s word and talk with Him about how our lives relate to His word.
