Psalms

A Playlist for the Roadtrip of Life

Scott B. Bullock

Series Overiew

Embarking on the roadtrip of life is much like assembling a playlist for a cross-country journey, and for centuries, the Psalms have been the musical companion to countless travelers. From collective sing-alongs of praise to individual cries for mercy, the Psalter serves as a rest and oasis for souls navigating the challenging paths of life. Described as an anatomy of the soul, the Psalms offer a perfect sanctuary for those desperately seeking to make sense of their journey. This summer’s preaching series, ‘The Book of Psalms: A Playlist for the Roadtrip of Life,’ serves as a roadmap through the greatest hits of praise, lament, thanks, and trust, providing a meaningful guide for those on the journey of self-discovery.

Designed thematically for the summer season, over the course of 12 weeks, the series warmly invites you and your community to join in singing the timeless songs of this book. Athanasius remarked that the Psalms contain ‘the whole human life’ within their words. By singing the songs of those who have traveled before us, we will undoubtedly find ourselves securely in their company.

TPW puts you in the driver's seat. We want you to approach God's Word, prayerfully listen to the Holy Spirit, and create a message for your congregation. We don’t offer ready-made sermons. Instead, we provide resources and inspiration to help you craft your own sermons and services.

What is AIM Commentary?

AIM stands for Ancient context, the text through the lens of Jesus (Ἰησοῦς), and our Modern application. Understanding the Ancient or original context of the passage is necessary to inform and guide our interpretation. We also believe along with the Reformers that the interpretation of the Ancient context of the Hebrew scripture for the church necessarily flows through its Lord, Jesus Christ. Furthermore, we affirm that the role of the preacher to bring the congregation from the Ancient context through Christ and to the Modern context, making the message real in our hearts and lives.
