Abstract
It is my contention that far too many of our congregants fail to understand the importance of ongoing confession of sin. We can begin to correct this misunderstanding by preaching (expositionally) passages like Psalm 32. In this article, I help preachers and teachers navigate their way through Psalm 32—understanding the structure of the psalm, the key theological words, and the numerous figures of speech—so that solid sermons and lessons on Psalm 32 can be written and delivered. My hope is that as this psalm is exposited, the church will move from prideful to penitent.
