Email Preparing for 5/31

Email preview for Psalms Group on May 31, 2020

Dear Psalms friends,

Tomorrow we will be concluding the strange and memorable Eastertide of 2020 with the joyful celebration of Pentecost Sunday, the official birthday of the church. Appropriately, our Psalms group will focus on “Joy,” chapter 6 of David Taylor’s Open and Unafraid.

We will explore Psalm 66 to help us enter into the joy of rescue and deliverance,

the joy of troubles and transformation,

and the joy of thanking God and telling others about who he is to us and what he does for us.

No Comments on Joy in God

Unless otherwise noted, quotes are from Interpreting the Psalms by Patrick D. Miller, Chapter 5: “Enthroned on the Praises of Israel: Interpreting the Biblical Hymns”

“The most exuberant, extensive, and expansive indicators of who and what God is, and what God is about, are found and elaborated in the hymns and songs of thanksgiving that the people of Israel and individuals in that community uttered again and again in the course of Israel’s history.” (p. 64)
