Reader, July has a different feel than June. The summer is no longer new. The rhythm you started building on June 1 has either taken root or quietly loosened, and most of us know which one is true without having to think too hard about it. Either way, this Monday morning is an invitation back to the Word. No guilt about what was missed. Just an open journal and one more Psalm. Before we jump into this week's readings, can I ask you something? How is Summer in the Psalms going for you? Some of...

Reader, The middle of a journey has its own particular weight. The beginning had momentum. The end has a finish line in sight. But the middle — week four, day twenty-two — is where you find out what you're actually made of. If you're here, reading this, still in it — that matters more than you know. Last week, we followed David from the wilderness of Judah into worship, watching remembrance become the bridge between longing and praise. The seed we planted: when you cannot feel God's nearness,...

Reader, Three weeks of mornings given to the Word. You may not feel the cumulative weight of that yet — but something is shifting in you, whether you can name it or not. The Psalms that felt like ancient poetry at the beginning of June are starting to feel like language. Language for things you've been carrying that you didn't have words for before. That is not accidental. That is the Word doing what only the Word can do when you give it consistent, unhurried access to your heart. Last week,...

Reader, There's something about the second week of anything that tells you the truth about whether you actually want it. The excitement of day one has settled. The newness has worn off just enough that showing up now costs something it didn't cost before. If you're here — reading this, journal open or on its way — that means something. Don't underestimate it. Last week, we sat with David on the floor of Psalm 51. We watched him reach for God not after he had gotten himself together, but...

Reader, June mornings have a particular quality to them — the light comes in slower, the day hasn't crowded in yet, and there's still a little room to breathe before the world catches up with you. I hope you're reading this in one of those moments. Today you’ll open Psalm 51 and begin. Before we go any further into this week, I want to give you something that will change how you read every Psalm in it. Psalm 51 was not written in a moment of spiritual inspiration. It was written in the...

Hey Reader, Before we open Psalm 51 on June 1, I want to tell you something about the people who wrote Psalms 51–100 — because context isn't just background information. Context is the thing that turns a beautiful verse into a living word that reaches into your actual life. Here's who you'll be hearing from over the next 60 days. David He opens this entire section — and he opens it on his knees. Psalm 51 is his repentance after Bathsheba and Uriah. Before you read a single word of it, know...

Hey Reader, Last week the Lord placed something on my heart that I was not expecting. He led me to study the impact of scripture writing — really study it. And I had no idea how powerful it was. I reached out to my video editor and told her I felt very strongly that this video needed to go out before June 1st. I am so grateful for a team that prioritizes the voice of God over our schedule. I recorded it. And honestly, at the end I was moved to tears. This is so much bigger than just writing...

Hey Reader, I want to be honest with you about something — and I say this from personal experience more than I'd like to admit. Every year, people start a Bible plan with every intention of finishing. The excitement is real on day one. The consistency holds through the first week. And then somewhere around week two or three, life crowds in. The alarm gets snoozed. The journal sits on the nightstand unopened. The videos pile up unwatched. Not because the desire left — because the preparation...

Reader, I want to show you something before June 1 gets here. Because Summer in the Psalms isn't just a reading plan — it's a rhythm. And coming off our weekly Thessalonians study, daily is going to feel different. Not harder. Just closer. More intimate. One Psalm, one day, one conversation with God at a time. Here's how each day works: 1. Read it. Open your journal and read the Psalm in the KJV — the text is already printed inside for you. No extra books needed. 2. Watch it. Head over to the...
