Reflections on Psalm 23 Study Guide

The Vital Prescription: Courage + Comfort = Hope Ken Curtis explores coping with advanced cancer from personal experience based on the inspiration of the 23rd Psalm.

Psalm 23 is one of the best-known and loved passages in the Bible. Its words of comfort and encouragement have been a support to many in difficult times. The clear and powerful sense of God's protective love comes forth so beautifully in this psalm. It is for this reason that so many people relate to it immediately when facing major personal challenges. At times of great fear and uncertainty, and cancer is one of the greatest, the simple yet powerful words of Psalm 23 sustain us like few others can. God's grace is greater than any possible obstacle or concern.

Ken Curtis was diagnosed with advanced cancer with little prospect for survival. He pursued a combination of traditional and alternative medicine, undergirded by a strong spiritual dimension and prayer support team.

Psalm 23 was a vital part of his spiritual component, and for this video Curtis went to Israel, home of David and the Psalm, to be with the shepherds, travel "through the valley of the shadow of death," and explore and enjoy the healing powers of the green pastures and still waters. The resulting meditations provide a combination of candid personal experience of what it means to battle cancer and some of the spiritual resources available through this time-honored Psalm.

Ken Curtis. Ph.D, is founder and president of Gateway Films/Vision Video and Christian History Institute.
