Quienes predican domingo tras domingo a menudo se cansan—tanto aquellos predicadores experimentados que han estado en el púlpito por mucho tiempo como quienes son nuevos frente a las exigencias de la predicación semana tras semana, se preguntan cómo mantener el ritmo de preparar nuevos sermones que comuniquen la Palabra de Dios con vitalidad.
Pastor-scholar Andrew Wilkes shares how his worshiping community, Double Love Experience Church, prayed and sang the psalms during the troubling times of 2020. The psalms gave them language and support for praise and lament, and Wilkes asserts that lament is the evidence of faith because we are bringing our troubles to God.
Author and pastor-scholar David Taylor shares how he came to appreciate the psalms and how he encourages people to bring their full, unedited selves to God in prayer and experience a richer and more honest life of faith.
Old Testament scholar Nancy deClaissé-Walford has spent her career studying the ordering of the Psalter. Most of the psalms, she says, are not tied to a particular situation, allowing us to sing and pray them honestly in our own contexts.
