Psalm 77: Footprints | Psalms of Summer, pt. 10

There are times when it’s easy to see tracks of God’s goodness and other times we fight to hang on in the turmoil in life. The truth of living is that it’s not always easy to see where and how God is at work in our lives. The Psalmist invites us to hear an intimate and heartfelt song, arising from their pain.This psalm provides an answer for what to do when the weight of despair presses down on us.

We are invited to catch a glimpse of the unseen footprints of God in the Psalm, as well as our own lives.

Pastor Tara VinCross will preach the next sermon titled, “Footprints” in the series Keep a Song in Your Heart: the Psalms of Summer.

The Word of God in our lives can cause things to shift. It might even cause some discomfort. Take a minute to thrive with Pastor Tara VinCross. 

Psalm 22: Victory in Defeat | Psalms of Summer, pt. 9

On the cross Jesus cried out, quoting the first line of Psalm 22, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Was this an admission of defeat? Was God really abandoning him?

One of the most profound elements of the gospel is that Jesus won by losing. He gained victory by being defeated. But what difference does that make for us?

We will consider Jesus’ use of Psalm 22 and ask some tough questions. What difference does Jesus make in the world, in our church, and in our lives? And how can Jesus give meaning and victory, even when we feel defeated?

Squeezing Praise Out of Pain | Psalms of Summer, Pt.6

Did David have a bad week? Psalm 69:3 in Today’s English Version reads, "I am worn out from calling for help, and my throat is aching. I have strained my eyes, looking for your help.” Did David have a good week? He continues in verse 30, "I will praise God with a song; I will proclaim his greatness by giving him thanks.” This Sabbath we are reminded that wherever we find ourselves on life’s continuum, we can end the day with praise.
