Have you ever seen something so amazing that there are no words to describe what it was that you truly experienced? This is why so many of the Psalms are written as poems or songs because mere words are unable to capture the Beauty and wonder of our God. God, often, can only be explained...
This week’s journey through our Summer of Psalms takes us to Psalm 15. It is a short psalm (5 verses!) but it contains great practical truth for our lives by answering a simple question: “O LORD, who may abide in Your tent, who may dwell on Your holy hill?” (v. 1) What we will discover...

It is easy to tell in our home who was tasked with putting the dishes away after washing and drying. If it is me, things get put away, but the pans will likely not be in a specific order, the bowls may be stacked unevenly, and a wooden spoon could end up in the utensil...
