Spirituality for Dark Times: Confessing (Psalm 32)

Guilt can take many forms—whether it’s a guilty verdict, a pang of guilt, or even a guilty pleasure. It can become more than just a feeling or judgment; it often manifests physically in our bodies through symptoms like headaches, difficulty sleeping, flushed cheeks, muscle tension, and physically secluding oneself. So, what is the remedy for this pervasive emotion?
Spirituality for Dark Times: Crying (Psalm 6)
We continue our series on Spirituality for Dark Times with Psalm 6, ‘Crying’. This week is our monthly Holy Communion service and the children’s groups will be running as normal.
The psalms are different. They are addressed to God and the complaint is turned into prayer, a plea to the one for whom nothing is impossible.
Psalm 23 is popular for good reason. The promise of God’s comfort, support, presence and leading even as we walk through ‘the valley of the shadow of death’ goes to the heart of a Christian spirituality for dark times. Furthermore, its last lines offer great hope, with a promise of a wonderful welcome into God’s house for evermore.
Spirituality for Dark Times: Following (Psalm 23)
This week is an All Age service at St. Luke’s and we will be looking at Psalm 23 as part of our series on ‘Spirituality for Dark Times’.
Spirituality for Dark Times: Fearing (Psalm 34)
We often think of spirituality as bringing us a sense of peace and comfort from connecting with God’s love and that is true. But it should also bring us into a healthy fear of God. Find out more as we continue our Spirituality for Dark Times series this Sunday. All the normal children’s group will be running.
We often think of fear as a negative emotion. Yet, fear is also a good and necessary part of life. Sometimes being afraid can make you feel more alive. I guess that is why people deliberately take on scary activities like bungy jumping, fare rides or parachuting. Also, fear is a protective emotion.
Spirituality for Dark Times: Meditating (Psalm 130-131)
How do we remain rooted and flourishing through the dark times? Meditate on God’s word. There will be normal children’s groups, praise, prayer and Bible teaching.
All Age service, when we will look at Jesus as he was growing up (Luke 2:41-51)
