Common questions
Do we study one psalm per week?
Most weeks center on one psalm, a few pair two short ones. Each week also teaches the type of psalm it represents — lament, praise, confession, trust — so your group leaves able to read the other 138 on their own.
What do I get?
Two PDFs: a leader's guide with the full weekly teaching, key Scriptures, and discussion questions, plus participant worksheets your group can write in.
Can I print copies for my whole group?
Yes — your purchase includes unlimited printing rights for your group, however large it is.
