Aleph: Learn to Keep God’s Words

Read Psalm 119:1-8

Today’s Truth

The writer of Psalm 119 devotes 176 verses to his love of God’s words. He begins with a blessing, and four times encourages us to keep God’s word.

To keep God’s word is to read it, think about it, and take it into our life so it fuels us and changes us. Think of keeping God’s word like eating. You bite into food, chew on it, then as it’s digested it becomes fuel for your body

Discussion Questions

If you ask Chuck his favorite thing in life to do, he would tell you it is the teaching and preaching of the scriptures and to call all people to engage in the great adventure of abiding with Christ. He desires to connect people with the richness, adventure, and fullness of life that comes through Christ alone and to reach the unchurched, de-churched, dead-churched, and unmoved. Chuck is married to his best friend Kristin and has two adult children, Taylor and Linley. Kris and Chuck believe the quality of their marriage rises and falls, not on circumstances or feelings, but based on their daily abiding with Jesus (Jn 15.5).
