This workshop will explore trenchant proclamations in the psalms and suggest uses of these proclamations in Christian worship.

A proclamation is a confident and significant declaration. A proclamation does not say “I wish that God were in charge.”  A proclamation says, “The Lord reigns.” A proclamation does not say, “I feel that God wants to take care of me.” A proclamation says “The Lord is my shepherd.” A proclamation is a confident and significant statement of what is true of God and the world, and the Psalms are full of them. This workshop will explore trenchant proclamations in the psalms and suggest uses of these proclamations in Christian worship.

Presented at the 2014 Calvin Symposium on 91
