Psalm 78 Part 1

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

Psalm 78 is a historical psalm. It is similar to Psalms 105-106, It tells the story of Israel's history much like Nehemiah 9; Ezekiel 16, 20, 23; and Acts 7. It stresses the goodness of God to His people and His people's stubborn rebellion to Him. It emphasizes both God's love and God's holiness and wrath and these attributes are seen against the picture of Israel's sin and rebellion. 78:1-8 The purpose of history History teaches us not to forget God History teaches us to put our trust in Him History teaches us not to imitate bad examples 78:9-11 Ephraim's rebellion 78:12-16 God's goodness to

S3 E8 - Dada

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail All of our kids to his point have said dada before mama, and Kylie has been holding out hoping that Finley will say her name first. But ever since last night...Finley has repeatedly said dada. It is the most precious thing in the world when your children finally come to know you and call on you as their dada. Well...have you ever stopped to consider how incredible it is that we can call upon God as "Abba, Father"? We don't just have any relationship with him, we have come to know him and have the most intimate relationship possible with him as his children. #SetYourMindAbovePo

ARE Bible Study - Ecclesiastes 11: Clean Out Your Heart

The Daily Answer

“One of the frustrating things of life observed in 9:11f., was the fact that time and chance can overturn our finest plans. If that can be a paralyzing thought, it can also be a spur to action: for if there are risks in everything, it is better to fail in launching out than in hugging one’s resources to oneself” (Derek Kidner).

Pharisees and Disciples

Kris Emerson · Excel Still More

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks! Today we are comparing the Pharisees (along with some Priests and Rich folks) to true Disciples (even an outside looking in Gentile woman). The Gospels, and Jesus Himself, demand that we come face to face with the difference and choose who we want to be. In today's episode we look at several stories I'll note and reference here: Pharisees and Tax Collector - Luke 18:9-14 The Good Samaritan - Luke 10:30-37 The Widow's Mites - Luke 21:1-4 Simon and the Sinful Woman - Luke 7:36-50 Pharisee and the Gentile Woman - Mark 7:1-30

Psalm 77

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

This psalm moves from lament to praise. There are no mentions of enemies in Psalm 77 and only a brief mention of troubles in vs. 2. However, his trials must have been intense for they lead him to question if God is who He revealed Himself to be. In vs. 7-9 what has happened to God's lovingkindness, grace, and compassion. These are terms by which God reveals HImself in Exodus 34:6-7. The words of Exodus 34:6-7 are basically repeated in the Psalms in 86:5, 15; 103:8; 145:8. Is God who He said He was?? The exodus is the answer in vs. 11-20. The exodus is proof for all people of all time that God
