Old Testament Books

We live in a world that's fascinated with celebrities. Magazines and the paparazzi have built an entire industry around helping us answer the question, "What is he or she like?”

In this devotional from Athens Church, we’ll ask that question about a particular "celebrity" and ask, "What is God like?”, and we’ll focus on one of the most famous Bible passages, Psalm 23, to help us answer it. In doing so, we'll discover that when it comes to God, there is a lot to like!

Like: A Journey Through Psalm 23

The Psalms and Proverbs are filled with songs, poetry, and writings - expressing true worship, longing, wisdom, love, desperation, and truth. This plan will take you through all of the Psalms and Proverbs in just 31 days. Here, you will encounter God and find comfort, strength, solace, and encouragement that covers the breadth of the human experience.

Psalms and Proverbs in 31 Days

The Psalms & Proverbs plan was compiled by the folks at YouVersion.com to help you read through the book of Psalms twice and Proverbs 12 times. This plan is meant to be read over the course of one full year.

Psalms & Proverbs

Just like the disciples who followed Jesus during his time on earth, we look to our Savior for wisdom and direction. As the disciples saw first-hand and we read in the Bible, Jesus gained strength when he spent time with the Father. So, we ask him, “Jesus, teach us to pray.” This reading plan from author Bobby Schuller shows you how to follow Jesus’ lead in “Praying the Psalms.”

Life and Healing in the Psalms

The Psalms find the words that express our deepest and strongest emotions, no matter what the circumstances. These devotions, inspired by The Passion Translation Psalms: Poetry on Fire, combined with the daily readings, will turn sighing into singing and trouble into triumph. This 10–day reading plan includes the Psalms of praise and the Word spanning Psalms 107-150.

Psalms of Praise and the Word

The Psalms are full of rich truth and deep emotion. The writers didn’t ignore the world around them or try to pretend their problems weren’t real. Instead, they drew from the truth they knew about God (his words, his ways, his character) to shape their worship and worldview. We have the privilege and joy of drawing from this well of truth to encourage our own souls today.

Prestonwood Worship - Songs Of The People

The Book of Psalms is known as the Bible's songbook — Jesus knew the psalms intimately, and relied on them to face every situation, including his death.

Each day readers will encounter a fresh, inspiring lesson from one of the most beloved books in the Bible. In this sample, you will experience the first fourteen days of the devotional, based on Psalms 1-9.

Written by an elderly King Solomon, Ecclesiastes reflects on a life of meaningless pursuits. Solomon writes that the world's pursuits, from wealth to self-indulgence, are vain and unfulfilling.

In Ecclesiastes, the author attempts to find meaning and purpose in life. As we read, we see anguish and regret over failed attempts at happiness through wealth, fame, and achievement.

Ecclesiastes

People often search for the meaning of life from wealth, relationships, careers, charity, religion, etc. However, the reality is that there will always be a void in the human soul unless we are reconnected with our Creator. The author of the book of Ecclesiastes concludes that a life without God is just vanity, for God is where we find the true meaning of our existence.
