On Sunday we tackled Psalm 113, which is a Psalm of praise to God who is worthy of our praise. When we find ourselves in what might appear to be a hopeless situation it can be overwhelming.

We continued our sermon series this past Sunday by studying Psalm 90. This is the oldest of all the Psalms and it is written by Moses. Psalm 90 is all about age and time, morning and evening, and seasons and generations passing by in a blink of an eye. As the years pass by, we … Read more
