Psalm 16 contains one of my favorite verses in all of scripture. Psalm 16:11 contains the words, "You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand." There is a path of life that leads to an overflowing joy...even in the midst of the most difficult times. But it's His path... what path are you on?

Psalm 13 is an individual psalm written to be prayed, sung or spoken in a corporate setting. It's a psalm of lament that contains a 4 word prayer that has perhaps passed through the lips of every God-follower throughout the ages. "How long, O Lord?" How long will you be silent? How long will you be absent? How long will you abandon me? How long before you show up and make things right? "How long, O Lord?" But there is hope...it's a hope in His unfailing love!

Psalm 8 contain the words of a person filled with wonder because of the creative power of God. They are drop-jaw, knock-kneed, heart-filled from gazing on the wonders of God. But here's the catch...out of all the wonders of creation, you are His greatest masterpiece. You are not junk. You are the beloved masterpiece of God. He can't take His eyes off of you. Take a few minutes today and ponder that good news!

One thing I love about the writers of the psalms is that they bring their real self to the game. They don't try to hide the pain or the doubt. They don't sanitize the language. They bring their real self. Psalm 5 is a prayer of lament...and yet it is carries within it the seed of hope. Can you have both in the same soul at the same time? Listen and see.

The word that I cannot escape in Psalm 1 is the word "blessing." Psalm 1 is a description of the blessed life, the way of blessing, like a tree planted by the streams, roots deep, full of fruit, thriving. We'll take some time in this episode and ponder the path of blessing as it's described throughout scripture!

The psalms are the longest book of the Bible, 150 chapters, half or more written by David. And if there is one thing I appreciate about David, above all others, it is his heart to persevere, his heart of endurance. Through some of the most difficult days, we can imagine, he never gave up hope. That heart of hope is found scattered throughout the Psalms. This podcast will introduce us to the Psalms before dive into Psalm 1.

How do I gain momentum in my spiritual life? If you have never experienced a sense of being stuck in your spiritual life, this question may not interest you. On the other hand, if you have never felt stuck, someday you will. It happens to all of us. In those times how do we gain momentum back in our spiritual life? This episode will review Mark's gospel, but near the end, momentum is what I'm pondering.

How do I stop living an in-between life? Now that's a bit of a strange question. You'll understand it a bit more as you listen to this episode. But the disciples in-between the cross and resurrection were living in the in-between; in-between hopeless and hopeful. For a time, they were stuck. When we feel stuck, how do we move forward. In this last section of Mark's gospel we gain some hope and some instruction for moving forward. Maybe it's time for you to take a step of faith. Maybe it's time to go back to Galilee...
