We conclude a series that explores the great character of God. Every sermon has been taken from the Psalms in this series. No other book in your Bible has as many authors as does Psalms. The superscriptions above verse 1 of many of the Psalms tell us that Moses, Solomon, Asaph, Hezekiah, and ...read more
