I Feel Insignificant
Dillon Thornton - 5/3/2020
Whether you’re a self-confident or self-loathing person, or (more realistically) a mixture of the two, Psalm 8 has something challenging and encouraging to say to you. This psalm leads us on a journey of self-discovery. And you won’t believe who you are!
Psalm 8
I Feel Guilty
Dillon Thornton - 4/26/2020
One of the darkest episodes in the Bible gives rise to the most powerful confession of sin in the Psalter. The message of Psalm 51 is that even the vilest person with the darkest secrets in their past can find forgiveness and be set free from the weight of guilt.
Psalm 51
I Feel Angry
Dillon Thornton - 4/19/2020
Should God's people get angry? And if we experience the emotion of anger, how should we deal with it? We find a wealth of wisdom in the place few readers dare to tread--the imprecatory Psalms.
Psalm 35; 137
I Feel Alone
Dillon Thornton - 4/05/2020
Feeling forsaken by the God of his fathers and the God of his youth, and chased by the threat of death, David pours his heart out in prayer, and in doing so shows us how to emerge from the abyss of loneliness.
Psalm 22
I Feel Afraid
Dillon Thornton - 3/29/2020
We sometimes suppress our emotions (“conceal, don’t feel”). Other times we allow our emotions to spew everywhere, like a volcanic eruption. The Psalms provide a third way of dealing with our feelings. The Psalms give us permission to bring our true feelings to God, to pour them out in prayer, and to process them in his presence.
Psalm 56
