Psalms are the most cherished documents in the Bible. Lent is a season for studying the penitential psalms. We begin with an orientation to the Psalter and then turn to the seven penitential psalms: 6, 31, 37, 50, 101, 129, and 142. Do bring your Bible to each session. A twentieth or twenty-first century translation is best.
