DESCRIPTION:Teaching the Psalms\n\nDATE: Friday\, April 17th TIME: 9:00am–2:00pm LOCATION: Westwind Church\, Waukee  COST: FREE (includes materials & lunch)\n\n			 \n				REGISTER NOW\n			\n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			 \n				\n				\n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				“Teaching the Psalms as Christian Scripture”\nJoin us on Friday\, April 17th\, 9:00am-2:00pm at Westwind Church in Waukee for an engaging seminar all about teaching the Psalms. \nWho is this seminar for?\nThis seminar is open to pastors\, men’s/women’s ministry leaders\, Bible study leaders\, Sunday School teachers\, lay people\, and anyone who wants to be equipped to better understand and teach the Psalms. \nJosh Tillman\, Lead Pastor at Westwind Church will be guiding this seminar to provide teachers young and old with fresh insights and practical tips on bringing the Psalms to life. \nThe Psalms teach us to pray\, but they also teach us how to teach. Martin Luther notes that the Psalter “should be precious and dear to us if only because it most clearly promises the death and resurrection of Christ\, and describes His kingdom\, and the nature and standing of all Christian people. It could well be called a ‘little Bible’ since it contains\, set out in the briefest and most beautiful form\, all that is to be found in the whole Bible.” Within this seminar we will study how the Psalter teaches us how to do biblical theology\, how to the teach the Psalter as a book\, and the New Testament use of the Psalms. \n \n\n\n\n\n\nDon’t miss out on this opportunity to grow your teaching skills in a relaxed and friendly setting! \n\n\n\n\n\n			 \n			 \n				\n				\n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About Our Speaker\nJosh Tillman\, Lead Pastor –Westwind Church\, Waukee\n			 \n				Westwind Church Website\n			\n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			 \n				\n				\n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				I was born and raised in Jacksonville\, Florida and came to faith in the Lord when I was 13 years old. My home church partnered with Bob Tebow and his evangelistic association and I began taking annual mission trips with him to the Philippines while in high school before spending a year there after graduation. It was during this time that I sensed God’s call into ministry and met and married Joanna\, my wife of 22 years. We moved to Louisville\, KY where I did my undergraduate at Boyce College and my M.Div at Southern Seminary. While at Southern I had the opportunity to intern with a professor who was in the process of revitalizing a local church. This internship radically changed the directory of my life and ministry. From there my wife and I have been apart of church revitalization work in Kentucky\, Missouri\, and Florida before being called to serve here in Iowa.\nI have continued to have a heart for the nations and have had opportunities to train pastors in the Philippines\, El Salvador\, and Nepal. I earned my PhD in Biblical Theology from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in 2022 and wrote of the message and theology of Book I of the Psalter. My research interest has focused primarily on biblical theology and ecclesiology. Recently\, I have helped Corban University develop an Old Testament undergraduate course on Poetry and Wisdom Literature and have began serving as an adjunct professor. \nAdditionally\, I have served on local association boards for revitalization training and equipping and I currently am on the board for Waypoint Resources in Waukee\, IA. My wife and I have five children whom we homeschool (ages 10-19) and our oldest is enrolled at Spurgeon College’s Fusion program and is training to spend three months overseas.\n			 \n				REGISTER NOW
