The book of Psalms expresses worship.  Throughout its many pages, Psalms encourages its reader to praise God for who He is and what He has done.  Proverbs shows its theme early telling us that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.  The fear of the Lord refers to our viewing Him with the respect He deserves.  Pastor Dennis and Pastor Tim provide us with some insight on some of the most recognized chapters from these two books.

Part 1:  The Person God Blesses (Psalm 1:1-6)

Pastor Dennis gives this message on Psalm 1.  This Psalm is written in order to teach what is right and what is wrong.  It describes the things that are pleasing to the Lord and how to do them.  It also explains that there are consequences for not following the path of the Lord.

Part 2:  The Path of Life (Psalm 16:1-11)

Part 7:  Discovering God (Psalm 139:1-24)

Pastor Dennis gives this message on Psalm 139.  One of the greatest truths in life, which we all must come to learn, is that there is no escape from God.  Once we give up our flight and allow ourselves to be found, we discover His intention.  He formed us even in our mother's womb for His purpose and ordained all of our days bedore we ever saw the light of day.

Part 8:  Psalm of Praise (Psalm 150:1-6)

Part 11:  The 'Train-up' Concept (Proverbs 22:1-6)
