Humility To Praise Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 4, 2013

When you are at the bottom it seems like there is no way up or out. But in the final five songs of ascent, we see that the way is the way of Yahweh.

In a way, the final songs of ascent contained in Psalms 130-134 trace the path of salvation and unity with God, which leads to abundant praise and thanksgiving for all that He has done for us. Psalm 130 starts with the cry of the broken-hearted. 1 – 2 When either you find yourself in a ...read more

In a way, what we see in this portion of Mark 14 is the failure of mankind. In several key ways, man abandons ...read more
