Jealous, Avenging, Wrathful, or Good? Yes!
They’re not side-by-side, but pretty close. Not much distance between Nahum 1:2 and Nahum 1:7 (maybe 3 inches). But, at first glance, they seem worlds apart. The LORD is a jealous and avenging God; the LORD is avenging and wrathful … Continue reading

His Steadfast Love Endures Forever
Some portions of Scripture you kind of need to work at if you really want to pick up what’s being laid down. Not so much with Psalm 136. Instead, with this song the table is set clearly and without ambiguity. … Continue reading
A Gladdened Soul
There’s praise amidst the problems. Worship despite the worry. Thanksgiving even among the threat. That’s the overall sense I get as I noodle on Psalm 86 this morning. It’s a song of David. A “poor and needy” David as a … Continue reading

Misery Loves Company
