Monk Habits for the Rest of Us: Praying the Psalms

As we continue our sermon series on prayer, Vine Covenant member Gabe McKinney explores the power of praying through the Psalms. Join us as we dive into how these ancient prayers can shape our conversations with God today. Scripture: Psalm 13 Discussion Questions: Over the past few weeks, how’s your experience with prayer been? Have you thought more about or practiced a certain habit (Lord’s prayer, solitude, silence, other?)  Have you ever prayed using Scripture before? If yes, how’s it been? If no, why not?  What or who has shaped your idea of prayer and what prayer “should look like”?  How does the Psalm 13 prayer (or Psalms as a whole) compare to your approach to prayer?  Are there any Psalms you naturally resonate with? Which ones? And why?  If you were to write a Psalm-like prayer to God today, what emotions or themes would it include? What is one insight you’ve gained about prayer from the past few weeks?
