I love the Psalms. I once described them in a sermon as “The Walmart of the Bible”, by which I meant that they have pretty much everything you need in one place. Whether that was a wise description or not, I have found the Psalms a place to return to for personal study and prayer, as well as for sermons. Here are a few sermons based on specific psalms or parts of psalms. I have arranged them according to their placement in the Psalter rather than in the order I preached them.
