Can You See What I Hear? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021

Psalms 27, 37, And 84 Series

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 7, 2020

Passages in different locations are often interconnected in such a way that one avenue of thought springs from another. Although these psalms were not written with the intent that they be interconnected by us today, they collectively express a message relevant today.

For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

God meets us in our deepest pain, offering hope and love through Christ, transforming our cries into praise and gathering us into His redeemed people.

Some of us walked in today with a quiet ache. You smiled at the door, shook a hand or two, found your seat, but there’s a knot that won’t untie. A prayer that feels unanswered.
