Bible Readers Series a Study of Psalms Student: Living in God's Presence - Tapa blanda

A short-term, 8 session study of the book of Psalms. The study focuses on the central themes of Psalms. Nearly every psalm is related to the fact that God is present in the world and is lovingly and purposefully involved in the lives of people.

Four lessons explore how the people of God are called to praise God who creates and sustains, acts on behalf of God's people, delivers them from trouble, and knows and cares.

Four responses to God's actions are suggested: trust in God, keep God's laws, repent and confess, and worship and witness. 

The Bible Readers Series is designed for adult study groups wishing to explore a particular book of the Bible for a limited number of sessions. It uses the NRSV translation.
