Psalm 39: Rage Against the Song
Saturday night at Refuge Church, Pastor Brian continued our Summer of Psalms by looking at Psalm 39. This prayer of King David speaks of anger and frustration. The Psalms are a reflection of our own human nature. Have you ever been angry with God? And is all anger bad?
Psalm 38: Take a Sad Song
At Refuge Church this past Saturday night, Pastor Brian talked about the emotions behind one of the prayers of King David known as Psalm 38. This Psalm speaks of an honest, raw pain that he is feeling. Is it a consequence of Sin, or does bad stuff just happen? In those seasons of life, where does Your hope come from?
Psalm 49: God is Provision
Saturday Night at Refuge Church, Pastor Brian explores Psalms 49. This Psalm is about Death, Money, and Fear. God has a lot to say about these issues. Will you allow Him to be your Provision?
Psalm 911

The full audio from our FIRST BIRTHDAY party at Refuge, complete with music, teaching and testimonials. If you want to know what Refuge is all about … this is a great place to begin.
Psalm 23 is probably the most well known chapter in the book of Psalms. Our Good Shepherd — Jesus, is the head of the church and if we are to be HIS body we need to commit ourselves to be shepherds in our community — HIS hands and feet on earth. Tonight during the 1st Birthday of Refuge Church, Brian leads us through a closer look at this Psalm and the way of the “shepherd.”

Psalm 90
A prayer of Moses, the man of God–this is how Psalm 90 is titled. In this Psalm Moses has great wisdom to impart to us, wisdom he gained through personal experience. Moses realizes too late that his disobedience cost him the Promised Land, but its not too late for the next generation. Teach us tonight Lord to appreciate the brevity of life, so that we might grow in wisdom.

Psalm 73 // The Doubters Psalm
Doubt is normal and in many cases maybe even beneficial–doesn’t sound like something you should hear in church, does it? As Psalm 73 begins, our Psalmist is overcome with doubt, so much so that he states, “My feet were slipping, and I was almost gone.” We are confused by a world where the evil seem to proser and the good suffer, does God even know what’s happening? These questions and doubts are what we examine tonight as we look at Psalm 73.

Psalm 139
No matter where we go we can’t run away from God–that should be a comfort to us, right? We are blessed to have a God who is omniscient and omnipresent, but as Psalm 139 begins it seems as if the writer is feeling smothered by our ever present/all knowing God. This Psalm can be confusing–is it a lament or a song of praise? Tonight we will find out as we dive into Psalm 139.
