We indwell a frenetic world where we’re tempted to “perform” for our own self-justification, leading to burnout. But God calls us in Psalm 90 to indwell a different reality—in fact, to make God our home.

Life is full of stress and trouble.  Yet, Psalm 131 proclaims that God is enough to get us through.  And because that is true, we can be a people who resist anxious pride, cultivate humility, and hope in the Lord even when life is tough.  A calm soul hopes in the Lord.

Trials and sufferings convince us that God has abandoned us, but Psalm 46 reminds us that God is with us and for us, even when it feels like everything and everyone is against us.

A Q&A with Dr. David Briones: One who believes the gospel and proclaims the gospel should also embody the gospel.

Psalm 119 provides an extended insight into the psalmist’s spiritual experience as a suffering sojourner looking ahead to God’s mysterious but sure deliverance.

David has two problems. There is David’s sin and there is David’s self. He faces his guilt as well as his guilty feelings. His repentance finds its voice, as does his faith, in the hope that God’s grace is sufficient for both his problems.

Many Psalms of Lament conclude with confidence in God despite suffering.  However, Psalm 44 begins with confidence, followed by a complaint, concluding with a call for God to act.

When language devolves into lies and power-relations to drown out trustworthiness, we find divine rescue in the sevenfold pure words of the Lord.

Why do we conceal our sins rather than confess them, especially when they imprison and distance us from God’s presence and his people? We’ll consider the folly of this approach to the Christian life and the liberating joys of confession flowing from our faith in the glorious gospel of the Lord Jesus.

From deep waters we cry to an attentive Lord for deliverance and forgiveness. Our watchful hope looks to his word of promise and plentiful redemption.

In this wilderness journal King David records his experience of the steadfast love of the Lord in the face of deep suffering. His poetic witness points us to the love of Christ and the promised joy of abiding in the greater son of the great King David.

Even though our praise cannot actually make God greater or higher than He is, the Lord is pleased for our praise to exalt Him in our minds and hearts.

Psalm 8 contains the reflections of the psalmist upon the night sky. At the beginning and end, he speaks about the glory of God.

Dr. Clark commences the WSC Fall Faculty series on the Psalms with a devotional from Psalm 2.

Saving faith is vindicated by Spirit-wrought good works.

Dr. Bitner reads through the letter of James in its entirety in this special morning devotion.

James compares two forms of God’s law, the royal law that condemns us for just one sin and the law of liberty by which God shows us mercy. We who are under the latter law must speak and act mercifully.

James teaches how hearing God’s word and responding to it ought never be separated and how seeing and remembering who we are as sinners and objects of God’s grace draws the two together.
