What if the three most famous Psalms in the Bible are actually one story, and that story has been pointing to Jesus all along?

In this episode, we dive into a Bible study on Psalms 22-24. These psalms were written by King David nearly a thousand years before the New Testament, and biblical scholars refer to them as the "Shepherd’s Trilogy."

Hidden within these psalms is a stunning prophetic timeline of the death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus.

This Psalms 22-24 Bible study covers:

[06:26] Psalm 22: The Crucifixion Prophecy – How David described Jesus on the cross in vivid detail, down to the pierced hands and divided garments, nearly 1000 years before the crucifixion.
[08:22] A Lesson from King David – How to feel the full weight of your pain and bring it to God the way David did to experience an unexpected peace and lightness.
[12:19] The "Bookend" Revelation – The jaw-dropping message Jesus sent to the Jewish crowd from the cross by quoting both the first and last lines of Psalm 22.
[19:25] Psalm 23: The Lens of Suffering – Why the rest, restoration, and “quiet waters” of this beloved passage only make sense through the lens of Christ’s suffering.
[27:42] Psalm 24: The Palm Sunday Connection – How this triumphant praise Psalm connects to the Ark of the Covenant, Handel's Messiah, and Jesus' final entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday.

Group Discussion Questions for Psalms 22-24:

[08:22] David vented his pain to God and then pivoted to praise, not because the suffering stopped, but because he transferred the burden. Is there something you are carrying right now that you haven't fully laid at God's feet?
[20:27] God put David through “shepherd school,” Moses through the wilderness, and Esther through the royal court. In your life, what season or "school" has God put you through, and what do you think He was preparing you for?
[23:16] People and sheep have a lot in common. What characteristics of a sheep can you most see in yourself: defenseless, needing constant care and to be led to (spiritual) food and water, resisting rest, or fearfulness.
