Christ in the Psalms is a yearly reflection on how the people of God pray, engage with emotion, and offer all elements of life to the God who dwells with His people. As we learn and reflect, we wondrously find unmistakable glimpses of Christ throughout the process.
This year will have us in Psalms 11–20, where we'll take one psalm in stride each week. This is our second lap through the entire Psalter, so if you're looking for sermons or community artwork from other psalms, please see our Christ in the Psalms content from previous years using the "See All" buttons below.
Behind the Art
Our Art Coordinator, Seth Coulter, created artwork to help us visually contemplate some of the motifs of the Psalms to help us engage not just our minds, but our hearts and imaginations more fully in the space of these ancient prayers. Use the button below to read about the symbolism and direction of this art in Seth’s “Behind the Art.”

Starting in Psalm 41, artists within our community have done a piece of artwork for each week's Psalm. There's been a lot of wonderful, stirring work over the years, and we've cataloged them here (save for during a tragically undermanned 2023), each with a write-up from the artist.

Psalm 18:10b-18:11 describes God responding to David's distress call as "he came swiftly on the wings of the wind. He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him, thick clouds dark with water."
