The Poetry of Spirituality

For the next 3 Sundays we're going to be spending some time together in the Psalms. For the church family at ECC this will be picking up where we left off in our long-term plan to look at each psalm - we've got to Psalm 11. For those at EB and EW you'll be joining us for a few weeks in a series we've entitled The Poetry of Spirituality. 

Why spend any time in the Psalms? Listen in to twentieth century pastor and martyr Dietrich Bonhoeffer:

The Psalter filled the life of the early Christianity. But more important than all of this is that Jesus died on the cross with words from the Psalms on his lips. Whenever the Psalter is abandoned, an incomparable treasure is lost to the Christian church. With its recovery will come unexpected power.
