In this thought-provoking podcast episode, Pastor Jeremy takes us on a fascinating journey through Psalm 23, exploring how we can bridge the gap between the ancient wisdom of the Bible and our modern lives. With humor and relatable examples, Jeremy begins by reminiscing about his childhood in the 1980s, highlighting the stark differences between the culture he grew up in and the world we live in today.
As he delves into the heart of his message, Jeremy introduces us to the concept of the interpretive journey, a five-step process that helps us understand and apply the timeless truths of Scripture to our daily lives. He walks us through each step, using Psalm 23 as a powerful example of how we can grasp the original context and meaning of the text, measure the cultural and historical distance between the biblical audience and ourselves, identify the critical theological principles, and ultimately apply those principles to our situations and challenges.

He explores the significance of the shepherd's rod and staff, explaining how they represent God's power to fight for us and His wisdom to lead us on the right paths.
