Psalm 119: The Beauty of God’s Word is where we begin our year, because it’s the Bible’s longest meditation on what we need most: God speaking. In this episode we walk through Psalm 119’s A-to-Z celebration of Scripture and learn why blessing is found not in figuring life out on our own, but in walking by God’s Word (Ps. 119:1, 105). We hear the psalmist’s hunger and honesty: God’s Word is sweeter than honey and better than gold, yet the same Word also exposes our wandering hearts and drives us to pray, “Seek your servant” (Ps. 119:72, 103, 176). We talk about the two works of the Word: the law that convicts and humbles, and the gospel that gives life to dust-clinging souls (Ps. 119:25). And we see how Psalm 119 ultimately points to Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh, who perfectly kept what we could not and now gives us life, light, and forgiveness. We end with a Gospel proclamation: in Christ, your sins are forgiven, your shame is covered, and you are welcomed home.
