"Out of the Depths"
Text: Psalm 130, Hosea 3, Psalm 40:1-3
Last week we looked at the Shepherd Psalm (Psalm 23) as a way of understanding that God goes with us in the deepest, darkest moments human experience. This week's study on Psalm 130 and Psalm 40 helps us understand that God doesn't simply walk with us through those moments, but that He also can lift us out of the pit and set our feet upon the rock!

The Good Shepherd - March 18, 2007
"The Good Shepherd"
Texts: Psalm 23, John 9, John 10, Ephesians 5:8-14
Our fourth Psalm on our Lenten journey, Psalm 23 provides us with hope in the midst of our suffering, for we know the degree to which God walks through the Valley of the Shadow of Death. Pastor Jon also provides a dramatic reading of Peter Kreeft's "Shared Hells," (from Bread and Wine, Plough Publishing Company, Farmington, PA, 2003, pp.156-161).

Today if You Hear His Voice - March 11, 2007
"Today if You Hear His Voice"
Text: Exodus 17, Psalm 95, John 4
Psalm 95 reminds us of the mumbling and grumbling of the Israelites wandering in the wilderness. As we experience this Psalm, we are encouraged to be exuberant in our praise of God, to soften our hearts, to listen to God, and to drink from the living water that Jesus offers.

His Eye is on the Sparrow - March 4, 2007
"His Eye is on the Sparrow"
Texts: Romans 4:1-17; Luke 12:6-7; I Kings 18:16-45; Psalm 121
Just as winter gives way to spring, God breaks in upon our sorrow and sadness with joy, darkness gives way to light, and death submits to life. Psalm 121 reminds us that God is watching over us and cares for our loved ones. He cares about sparrows, He cares about cedar waxwings, and He cares about you.
