Illuminate Summer Speaker Series 2024
June 10 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Jun 10, 24, Jul 15, 29, and Aug 12, 2024: 7:30pm-9:00pm Eastern Time (US & Canada) via Zoom.
Join us for a series of evening discussions with authors of Illuminate: Entering God’s Presence, the most recent publication in the Barclay Press Illuminate Friends Bible Study Series. Speakers will share insights from their studies as they prepared the lessons and “Friendly Perspectives” in this series.
The book of Psalms displays a range of human experiences and emotions that are brought to the Lord through songs and prayers. Anger, violence, sadness, and a recognition of evil are all present in the psalms – and so are love, peace, happiness, hope, and a recognition of God’s faithfulness.
Studying the psalms helps us better understand how to worship authentically. Whether you’re joyful, angry, suffering, or hopeful, God meets you there. Because God’s “steadfast love endures forever” (Psalm 136:1), we can all say with the psalmists, “Let everything that breathes praise the Lord!” (Psalm 150:6).
