Psalms
The Psalms have been the prayer book of God's people for over 3,000 years. They give voice to every human emotion—joy and sorrow, confidence and doubt, gratitude and lament—and teach us to bring every part of our lives before God. Pastor and author Eugene Peterson believed the Psalms help us "get inside the truth," while songwriter Bono of the rock band U2 has admired their "brutal honesty" before God. Throughout July, we'll journey through four different types of Psalms and discover why these ancient songs continue to shape lives and deepen faith today.
