  • Song In The Gate E06: Law

    Today's thought: The words that we speak to each other can have profound effects. Many of us remember the effects of words spoken at us or into us years ago. God’s words are deliberately and intentionally spoken into us to cleanse, heal, restore, challenge and grow us into maturity. We need to open our hearts up to them.

  • Song In The Gate E04: Deliberate Progress

    Today's thought: According to the text in Heb.12:1, there are things that are sinful, and then there are “weights” (ESV) – “things that hinder” (NIV). These are not sinful in themselves, but they can rob us of spiritual vitality. Can you identify any in your life?

    For the second day of our study of Psalm 1, we look at the first word of the first verse, 'blessed'.

  • Song In The Gate E01: Introduction

    Welcome to the first day (and first podcast attempt!) of this devotional on Psalm 1.

    Today's thought: the book of Psalms is placed roughly in the centre of the Bible. Maybe this is where our attention to Scripture, worship and prayer should be placed in our life as well.
