Psalm 37:1-9 responsive reading
The beginning of Psalm 37 sounds very much like someone wise giving a list of advice of how to live for God. This setting is therefore set out as half of the congregation giving advice to the other half. Designate everyone into group 1 and group 2 (if you would like to change this to another way of dividing; by age, gender, physical position in church and so on, then make that clear in your directions). Explain that you will read these pieces of advice to each other, and respond by committing to 'Let's live God's way!'. You can download a PDF above to get an easily printed version. I am using the New Living Translation here, but feel free to adapt to your prefered version:
Psalm 37:1-9
Seventh Sunday after the Epiphany (Year C)
Proper 22, Ordinary/Lectionary 27 (Year C)
