What was your view on studying the Psalms prior to enrolling in this course?

[Austin]

I read the Psalms as a source of wisdom, thinking about they being sacred songs.

[Austin]

I thought i was going study how the psalms are the out cries to the Lord

[Austin]

We can take the words of these Psalms and use them as prayers. Psalm 139:1-24 has been the prayer of my life, to the God of my life. My view on studying the Psalms has always been very personal.

[Austin]

I was taught the importance of reading the Psalms and as a child, memorized Psalms 23, which always gave me a sense of peace whenever I recalled it. But, I wasn’t really taught how to study them for full understanding.

[Austin]

I just always read psalms but never thought of them other than mostly as David’s prayers to God.
