Psalms of Wisdom

Pastor Dell kicked off our series on the Psalms by looking at Psalm 1. Psalm 1 presents a clear contrast between the path of wisdom and the path of wickedness. Those who choose wisdom avoid the progressive drift into sin—walking with the wicked, standing with sinners, and sitting with scoffers. Instead, they delight in God's Word through a journey from duty to discipline to genuine delight. Like trees planted by streams, they become firmly rooted, continuously nourished, and fruitful even in difficult seasons. This wisdom path requires guarding against cultural redefinitions of good and evil while maintaining a prayer life fueled by Scripture.
