As I mentioned in my last post, my appointment to Director of Academic Growth & Formation at Asbury Theological Seminary in Tulsa, OK has also provide the blessing of joining the staff at Asbury Church as Scholar-in-Residence. Reverend Andrew Forrest, the senior pastor at Asbury Church, wrote about my work at the church in a post published a few weeks ago. Read it here.
The first thing I get to do in my role as Scholar-in-Residence for Asbury Church is help Andrew by writing some of the commentaries for Asbury Church’s daily Bible reading. I’d love for you to join me in reading one psalm a day. We are on Psalm 94 today (July 12th). You can read today’s commentary here.
It has been a lot of fun to spend time reading commentaries and praying through these psalms. It has also deepened my appreciation for how much work it has taken for Andrew to write daily commentaries for Asbury Church’s reading plans since his arrival.
As Andrew often says, Asbury is a Bible reading church. I’m so grateful to be joining this faith community.
I’ve decided against republishing these commentaries on my own blog but wanted to share part of what I’m up to with you. It is easy to signup at Andrew’s blog here. Be sure to check the second box “Daily Bible posts” towards the bottom.
I hope you will pray the Psalms with me!

I am a bit embarrassed to admit this Daily Psalm reading has surprised me. I was reasonably close to finishing reading the Psalms when this study started.
What I found surprising was the emotions flowing from each days readings after having read them a few months before. Comparing notes taken earlier with notes guided by commentary from Andrew and now the esteemed Dr Watson add a lot.
I don’t want to say it has been a pleasure as that is not why I read scripture. It has calmed my soul which helps me to keep “Eyes on Jesus” no matter what happens.
Thank you both from Georgia.

Congratulations! Awesome News.
I hope to be moving to the area in the next year or so. Variables depending, but it will happen.
I can hardly wait! The Lord seems to be readying Asbury Church and Asbury Seminary for exciting times.
