What was your view on studying the Psalms prior to enrolling in this course?
-
An invitation to share in the thoughts, emotions and worship of God’s people as we journey in our knowledge and experience of the One who created us, chose us, redeemed us and loves us with an unfailing love.
-
Purely on the enocuragement and worship with no connotation to enjoying the life good (versus law-driven avoidance of sin).

*the life of good

My view on studying the Psalms prior to enrolling to this course was that The Psalms contain great truths about God and His will. My desire is to learn how to study the psalms in a proper way, but at the same time, how to have a refreshing communion with God, I want to learn about metaphors and how to interpret them properly. Ultimately what I look for in the Psalms are relevant principles for surviving in this world by volunteering God’s will.

My view on studying the Psalms prior to enrolling to this course was… “ I enjoy reading the Psalms so I felt I would enjoy studying them as well”.
The opening comments of Lecture 1, showed me that there is still a lot I need to learn regarding the Psalms.
In reference to my notes, I can see now how reading the Psalms can help us as people to live with ideal, desirable and acceptable attitudes and lives that please God. Yes!! There are alot of metaphors in the Psalms. That’s one thing I recognize when I read the Psalms.
The Psalms tell us about the life of David as well and his relationship to God. I’m looking forward to learning and understanding the Psalms in a fresh and powerful way! -
My idea wa that it contains prayers in the midst of trouble.Never thought it had ideals of the giver
