Pastor Brian will begin his series on Psalms, January 12th.
Within the greater book of Psalms there are five distinct sub-books, most scholars agree there are at least seven different literary types of Psalm. We plan to do one literary type from each of the five books. However, not all of the books contain every literary type, so we will not be looking at 7 Psalms from each book. Currently, we are planning to study about 25 Psalms.
Here is the outline we intend to start with:
