What does it mean for individuals to praise God? We will examine this crucial question by tracing individuals’ journeys from encountering God to glorifying God. To do so, you will first reflect on times in your personal life when you have encountered and praised God. Then you will meditate on Psalm 19, a psalm of praise, using the lectio divina spiritual practice. After this meditation, you will engage with artful interpretations of Psalm 19 in two ways: 1) watching a video of poet and theologian Malcolm Guite reading and commenting on his poem about Psalm 19; and 2) viewing an illuminated manuscript painting of Psalm 19 by visual artist Debra Band and listening to her commentary on it. Finally, you will reflect on how this session has affected your interpretation of psalms of praise.

What do you do when your pain or suffering remains unresolved? You will examine this crucial question by diving deeper into the psalms of lament, tracing the ways that individuals with unresolved or ongoing suffering bring their pain to their communities.

Then, you will explore two artistic interpretations of Psalm 88, performed by musician Charles Pettee and watercolor artist Julia Hendrickson, respectively.

What does it mean for communities to lament before God? We now turn to examining how worshiping communities themselves encounter pain and sing their cries to God in love. Put another way, we will ask: What is the theological witness to communal lament? First, you will meditate on Psalm 137, a communal psalm of lament written during Israel’s exile in Babylon. Then you will explore a musical interpretation of the psalm performed by Joey Weisenberg and the Hadar Ensemble, followed by commentary by Rabbi Richman. Finally, you will reflect on the role and purpose of the psalms of lament in your own worshiping community.

To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
