Fall Small Group Series

During these next six weeks, we will explore a familiar biblical text - Psalm 23. It is one of the most well-known passages in all of scripture. Many of us have heard this text read at a funeral service or prayed the words of the psalm during a difficult time in our lives. While we honor and recognize the value of this familiarity, we hope this study will help us understand Psalm 23 in a deeper way.
In claiming the Lord as our shepherd, we are invited to rely upon the presence and provision of God, not our own strength or abilities. In claiming the Lord as our shepherd, we inherently place our trust in God’s goodness and the call God has placed on our lives. In claiming the Lord as our shepherd, we are reminded of God’s abundant grace and the power of God’s promises, which pursue us our whole lives.
At the heart of this study are two major questions, “Am I open to being led?” and “To whom shall I entrust my life?” By focusing on God’s provision, presence, purpose, trust, abundance, and promise, we believe, with the help of the Holy Spirit, Psalm 23 can speak to our present moment in profound and timely ways.
What would it look like to incorporate the teachings of Psalm 23 into our daily living? How might we serve as a countercultural witness for Christ in a time of so much change and strife? Imagine how our lives, our families, our communities, and our world might be drastically different if we were courageous enough to say, as one church family, “the Lord is our shepherd!”
