Preaching the Psalms

August 12th, 2009 by Dan

Preaching the Psalms has been a refreshing summer. I have forgotten how real, how relevant, how raw they can be in describing the reality of our spiritual journey, in all of its beauty and brokenness. They deal with stuff all of us face; guilt, regrets, anger, depression, alienation, and of course the need for grace.

I am reminded that unless we put shoe leather to our doctrine, unless we make the truth of grace practical, we strip it of its beauty and of it’s power. This week I am preaching on an old doctrine, much forgotten – the doctrine of repentance. What a glorious thing it is to be able to repent and be restored by a loving, gracious God!
