Psalms 108 to 110 are attributed to David, expressing trust in God and seeking His aid against adversaries. Psalms 111 and 112 praise the Lord's wondrous deeds and extol the virtues of those who fear the Lord. Psalm 113 emphasizes God's sovereignty and care for the needy. In Psalm 114, nature's response to God's presence during the Exodus is poetically described. Psalm 115 contrasts the living God with powerless idols and encourages trust in the Lord. Finally, Psalm 116 is an individual's heartfelt praise for God's deliverance, and Psalm 117 calls on all nations to praise the Lord for His powerful love and enduring faithfulness.

Volume 5

Immerse: Poets is the fifth of six volumes of the Immerse: The Bible Reading Experience. Poets presents the poetical books of the First Testament in two groupings, dividing the books between songbooks (Psalms, Lamentations, Song of Songs) and wisdom writings (Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Job). These writings all reflect the daily, down-to-earth faith of God’s people as they live out their covenant relationship with him in worship and wise living.

4 Questions to get your conversations started:

3. Did anything make you think differently about God?
4. How might this change the way we live?

QUICK START GUIDE
3 ways to get the most out of your experience

1. Use Immerse: Beginnings instead of your regular chapter and verse Bible. This special reader’s edition restores the Bible to its natural simplicity and beauty by removing chapter and verse numbers and other historical additions. Letters look like letters, songs look like songs, and the original literary structures are visible in each book.
2. Commit to making this a community experience. Immerse is designed for groups to encounter large portions of the Bible together
   for 8 weeks–more like a book club, less like a Bible study. By meeting every week in small groups and discussing what you read in open,
   honest conversations, you and your community can come together to be transformed through an authentic experience with the Scriptures.
3. Aim to understand the big story. Read through “The Stories and the Story” (p. 483) to see how the books of the Bible work together to tell God’s story of his creation’s restoration. As you read through Immerse: Beginnings, rather than ask, “How do I fit God into my busy life?” begin asking, “How can I join in God’s great plan by living out my part in his story?”
