Self-Introduction of the Psalms: How David Introduces Us to Ourselves, Himself, and His Greater Son

Self-Introduction of the Psalms: How David Introduces Us to Ourselves, Himself, and His Greater Son

Share

As has been known for at least 1900 years, the Psalms have been carefully arranged to bless God’s people with news about his coming Son. We focus on how King David introduces himself through the careful placement of some psalms that connect him, his kingly office and his life with our lives as readers and with the expectation of the ultimate King and Son of God.

The following talk was given for Forum of Christian Leadership
