This summer, we’re spending time in the book of Psalms, a collection of songs and prayers that help us draw near to God. As we walk through this series together, we want to invite you to go beyond Sunday mornings by reading through the Psalms, memorizing Scripture, and listening to songs that turn your heart toward God. Take some time to explore the resources below and let them help you grow in worship, prayer, and trust in God throughout the summer.
Summer Psalms Reading Plan
Follow along with our Summer Psalms Reading Plan and make time each day to read, reflect, and meditate on God’s Word. Use this guide to keep you moving through the Psalms throughout the summer and make space to let God’s Word shape your heart and mind.
Summer Psalms Memory Verse
Psalm 1 - ESV
Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree
planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.
The wicked are not so,
but are like chaff that the wind drives away.
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
for the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
