History's Greatest Hits

May 26, 2024 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 1, Genesis 19:1, John 3:16, Genesis 13:10–12, Genesis 14:12

Give

This week we will dive into our new series which we’re calling “Psalms of Summer.” The book of Psalms spans some 900 years of Israel’s history and multiple authors contributed to its content through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

It has proven itself to be meaningful in the lives of countless people because it speaks to the whole of the human experience through the unique and powerful medium of music. Human beings have been designed to feel things deeply as they walk through this existence and often those deep emotions express themselves best through song.

It is our prayer that throughout the summer each of you will find that special song that speaks to your heart in a powerful and transforming way.

A Song of Hope

August 25, 2024 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 118

God has wired humanity for rhythm and rhyme. We use music to both celebrate and mourn and a majority of our most sacred, special, or significant events are marked by music. The Jewish people have traditionally celebrated Passover with the singing of six songs known as the "Hallel Psalms." These are composed of Psalm 113-118. What that means is that Jesus, on His final Passover celebration with the disciples in the upper room, would have sung this great song of hope in trying times with them. It is our prayer that we, like Jesus, learn to sing this great song of hope as well.

A Song of Gratitude

August 18, 2024 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 103

We live in a world prone to discouragement and anxiety. We are constantly pressured to forsake the present in exchange for a bygone past or an uncertain future. We often find ourselves chasing uncatchable dreams and trying to satisfy insatiable appetites. And we're left wondering if there's an antidote to it all. There is. It's called gratitude. David, the sweet singer of Israel, gives us the key in Psalm 103. It is to be thankful for the many blessings that our heavenly Father has bestowed upon us in this present moment. Do you want to avoid a life of regret? Do you want to learn to be present? David tells us how in this great song of gratitude and blessing.

A Psalm of Rejoicing

August 11, 2024 • Pastor Andy Shanks • Psalm 97

As we continue through the Psalms of summer, we will be looking at psalm 97 this week: A Psalm of rejoicing. We have so many reasons to rejoice no matter what our circumstances are. As we explore this Psalm, we will see 6 reasons why as believers we can rejoice. Each reason begins with remembering something about God or who we are as Christians. I would encourage you even as you read this to pause and think about reasons you can have a song of rejoicing.
