A Song of Comfort in Seasons of Fear

June 2, 2024 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 23, Micah 5:2–4, John 10:11–15

Give

This week we will walk through perhaps the most beloved song in the whole of the Bible - Psalm 23. It has comforted the dying and the grieving for the last 3000 years, but it has much to say to the living about how to live.

No matter how dark the valley or how many enemies have arisen against you, our God has promised us the ultimate victory through the Good Shepherd of the Sheep who leads us and fights for us.

It is our prayer that you will find comfort in seasons of fear through this amazing song.

A Song of Perspective

July 21, 2024 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 73, 1 Timothy 6:9–10

So much in life comes down to perspective and perspective is shaped by one's worldview, desires, fears, aspirations, and examples. The result of these things, in practical terms, is that the facts are often not what matter most to people. What matters most is how a person is choosing to see those facts. Therefore, it's our perspective, not the raw facts, that inform our attitudes and actions. This week we're going to consider a song of perspective. It is our prayer that your perspective will shift to see all of life through the glory and power of our awesome God.

A Song of Passion

July 14, 2024 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 63

Google estimates that there have been over 100 million love songs throughout history and across cultures. Most creatures are wired for safety. Human beings have undeniably been wired for love. The reason for that is because we have been made in the image of our God who the Bible says is love (1 Jn 4). The emotional pursuit of love often gives rise to various passions or strong desires. These passions can be godly or sinful depending on what, why, and how we're loving what we choose to love. This week we will consider a song of passion that calls us to love God with our whole heart.

A Song of Brokenness

July 7, 2024 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 32, Numbers 15:30–31, Isaiah 57:15, Hosea 6:1–3, 2 Samuel 12

We live in a culture where broken things have very little value. We've all had possessions that, at one time, we loved but as soon as it was broken we just tossed it away. As Christ-followers, we ought to be very thankful that our God doesn't look upon broken people like that. In fact, our God highly values a spirit of brokenness in His people. Biblical brokenness is an attitude that feels the weight of sin, the weight of the Gospel, and our desperate need for the grace and mercy of God. It is to be the normal state of being for all who would follow Jesus. This week we will learn to sing a song of brokenness.
