This year in FamilyQuest we'll be studying the word of God. We'll learn how it came to be, study some of the books of the Bible, and even study some of the bigger concepts found in the Bible.
In this 5-week unit we'll be studying the book of Psalms. This book, a collection of songs, has the most chapters of any books in the Bible. Many of the Psalms were written by King David, but there were many other authors, as well. Come join us each week as dig into a different Psalm.
You probably know more Psalms than you think because many have been used in songs. Which, of course, makes sense, because this is a book of songs that were sung by the children of Israel. Here are just a few that you might know (and they'll make for a great addition to your family worship time or even a family dance time!) Listen to the songs and see if you can find the Psalms on which they are based or that they are quoting. (You might have to use your smart phone or a website like www.worshiptogether.com.) When you find the Psalm, read it out loud together. For extra fun, see what other scripture verses you can find in these songs! (HINTS: You might want to look in the books of Isaiah and Matthew, though there are probably others, too!)
Better is One Day

Today is the Day
God You Reign
It Is Well With My Soul
