Listen "Never Get Bored with the Basics — Psalm 17"
Episode Synopsis
In Psalm 17, David gives us a rare title in the Psalms: "A prayer of David." This prayer models how to run to God in times of false accusation, hardship, and spiritual opposition. Pastor Sam Kraemer opens with a story about Kobe Bryant's relentless dedication to the fundamentals—reminding us that in the Christian life, prayer is one of those "basics" we must never grow weary of. David's example in Psalm 17 teaches us three key truths: Pleading Our Innocence Before God — How to examine ourselves honestly and pray with confidence when accusations are unfounded. Trusting in God's Steadfast Love — Understanding God's hesed, His covenant-keeping love that rescues and sustains His people. Facing the Hatred of the World — Why following Christ will put us at odds with the world, and how to entrust ourselves to the One who judges justly. You'll be challenged to return to the fundamentals of faith, to pray with boldness, and to trust God's ultimate deliverance. 📖 Key Passage: Psalm 17 🎯 Main Idea: Don't move past the basics. Like David, stay rooted in prayer, grounded in God's love, and steadfast when the world opposes you.
