This post shows a more traditional arrangement of Psalm 1, Composition by Dr. David Erb, of New Saint Andrews College and Christ Church, in Moscow, Idaho. Dr. Erb plays and sings the Psalm during the initial half of the following 4 minute video; the college choir sings during the second half. In case you are not familiar with Reformed Protestant churches, I have to say that their congregations sing from the Book of Psalms for Worship, like the college students in the video

This post is about Psalm 19: one short video is a contemporary arrangement of the Psalm by the group Sons Of Korah; one 2 minute video is by N. T. Wright providing an overview of the Psalm; and lastly, a children’s organization used Psalm 19:14 as a children’s song for the planting of a godly seed and memorization
Psalm Singing In a Contemporary Style
This post contains two songs using only scripture, by vocalist, Esther Mui: Psalm 119:137-144 (NKJV) Song “Righteous are You, O Lord;”and from Psalm 34:1-9 “O Taste and See that the Lord is Good” Although these songs have a contemporary flavor, they are certainly approved by God, as He wrote the lyrics
Singing Scripture Acapella
There are two 1 minute acapella videos in this post that use only words of scripture. The vocalist’s voice is lovely. If you should happen to want to memorize either of them, singing along with her will certainly aid you.
We Must Continually Come To Christ: Pastor James Smith [Devotional Reading]
James Smith was a predecessor of Charles Spurgeon at New Park Street Chapel in London from 1841 until 1850. Early on, Smith’s readings were even more popular than Spurgeon’s! This post is related to the preceding one, Walking in the Spirit; it provides a few insights about how the Spirit works in the born-again believer. …Although I have written about that topic a lot, especially the beatitude posts, I have only scratched the surface. And since contemporary Christianity seemingly understands nothing of the matter, this post is to help believers who seek answers to such questions.
