The Need for Sad Songs

Psalm 3

June 30, 2019 • Brian Watts

As we continue our new series in the book of Psalms, Playlist, we turn to one of the many Psalms of lament in Psalm 3. Here, we see David's response before God as he navigates an incredibly stressful and trying time. It allows us to see not only how we lament before God but also why we need to do it and the hope that can come from it.

Let Everything Praise the Lord

September 8, 2019 • Brian Watts

We close our Playlist series in the book of Psalms with the last chapter, Psalm 150. We see the culmination of all the Psalms by the writer again pointing his readers to focus all of their worship in life on God. The writer not only shows why praising God is vital but how we must praise God in all places and at all times.

Actively Waiting

September 1, 2019 • Brent Trautman

We continue with another Song of Ascent this week but one that has a very different tone. In Psalm 130, we see the Psalmist's cry to the Lord in the midst of sin and chaos as he recognizes that God is his only hope. We also see an interesting response... to wait on the Lord. We explore what this waiting looks like and how our lives should be characterised by active waiting on the Lord.

Excited Anticipation

August 25, 2019 • Kevin Blake

As we continue in our Playlist series, we look at Psalm 122. Here, we see Israel's excited anticipation as they begin their pilgrimage to entering the promised land. This reaction causes us to stop and look at the church today and ask some pointed questions about our reactions to God's promises and plans.
