A Song for Every Season (Psalms)

Happy, sad, regretful, thankful … For centuries Christians have found expression for their emotions in God-inspired psalms. But more than a soundtrack for life, the psalms contain God’s perspective on our feelings and guidance on what a faith-filled reaction to them might be. Ultimately, these poetic words point us to Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, who felt what we feel and showed us how to persevere with hope.

These ten studies by pastor and author James Stone are reflective and personal, able to connect with believers facing all manner of circumstances. You will be edified as you read and reflect on Psalms 22, 23, 42, 43, 51, 55, 73, 88, 100, 136 and 150.

James Stone is Associate Pastor at Engadine Congregational Church in Sydney, having previously served among university students with AFES in Canberra. He is married to Alison and they have a son, Caleb.

If you wish to share copies of the study with others, or plan to read out the questions or explanatory text to a group, consider a group licence. A group licence allows for up to 15 copies of a PDF to be shared within one growth group, making it quick and easy to organise. Otherwise, adjust the quantity you're buying to match the number of people participating. Volume discounts still apply to digital files, and these discounts will be automatically applied at checkout.

This Bible study resource is part of our series Pathway Bible Guides. This series aims to provide simple, straightforward Bible study material for:

• Christians who are new to studying the Bible (perhaps because they've been recently converted or because they have joined a Bible study group for the first time)
• Christians who find other studies (such as the Interactive Bible Studies) too much of a stretch
• groups with limited time for study

Accordingly, we've designed the studies to be short, straightforward and easy to use, with uncomplicated vocabulary. At the same time, the studies do justice to the passages and model good Bible-reading principles. They are simple without being simplistic; no-nonsense without being no-content.

The questions and answers assume a small group context but can be easily adapted to suit different situations, such as individual study and one-to-one.
