We take a look at this sermon at the imprecatory prayers in the psalter, and consider how they reveal the mercy and justice of God, especially when viewed in the light of the cross.

Psalm 78 is the longest psalm in the bible, with the exception of Psalm 119, which is an acrostic poem. It also contains the central verse in the Psalter, Psalm 78:36. It is also the central psalm of the "Psalms of Asaph" collection.

Rev. Lee looks at how Psalm 78 teaches us the importance of knowing and understanding our covenant history with God.

Rev. Lee teaches us how our Creed hold forth the Christian hope for the future in the bodily resurrection.

Our creed is not only doctrinal but liturgical. The work of the Spirit in gathering and sanctifying a church is focused on word and sacrament, and those two elements are both a focus in the Nicene Creed.

Psalm 77 demonstrates how God's covenant promises can create a crisis of faith, when they don't seem to be fulfilled, and also how these promises lead to a renewal of confidence and trust when they are clung to.

Rev. Lee continues to explore how the Nicene Creed places the work of the Holy Spirit in the context of the church. This week he looks at what it means that the church is "apostolic," and compares some competing visions of apostolicity.

Rev. Lee explores Peter's sermon on Pentecost and what it tells us about this evangelical feast day, and the significance of the sending of the Holy Spirit to the New Testament Church.

Rev. Lee concludes our four part series on Jonah by unpacking Jonah's misery in chapter 4 and seeing what it teaches us about God's providential care for his saints and mercy for the lost.
