The Listening to the Psalms
This was originally a detailed home Bible study, of 11 lectures in 2005.
I am 'remixing' these to MP4s and consolidating them into the individual psalms.
Some will be too long for a single video, so they might be in parts (while the MP3 might not be).
I will keep the originals at the bottom of this entry, until all are consolidated and converted to MP4s.

I can hear the wear-n-tear ["Accumulated Depreciation" for you financial service types...

heavy loads , dark roads, but the Light of the World walks with me, in His patience and goodness)
