Welcome to the 1st sermon in our series on what we should worship. (1 of 5)
Human beings are designed to be filled with awe. We are designed as worshipers. Think of the sense of amazement and peace that comes from standing on top of a mountain range or watching the sun set over the ocean. We are created and designed to worship God as he is, as he has revealed himself through what he has done in time and history. We are designed for a relationship with God that is fulfilled through us, as his creation, worshiping and standing in awe of him.
The biggest problem throughout Scripture, literally from the garden, is when people in general, but especially the people of God, turn away from him and start worshiping something other than God as god. When we place our trust in anything less than God himself, this is called idolatry. In this series on the Idols of the Heart we are going to be looking at where we all too often misplace our worship and refocus on what we are created and designed to do: to worship and be in awe of God himself.

Welcome to the 7th sermon in our series on some of our favorite Psalms. (7 of 7)
The book of Psalms is a huge collection of poetry, of wisdom, of prayers, and of hymns written by a whole bunch of different people in the life of Israel. It’s people that are wrestling with the truths of God and wrestling with the brokenness that they find in the world. They are trying in to understand and come to grips with what is going on. Throughout the Psalms you see lots of different emotions being expressed: happiness, joy, sorrow, shame, guilt, despair, hope, excitement, wonder, longing, brokenness, and a slew of other emotions. It is the place in the Bible where feelings are more present that events. Singer/songwriter Sandra McCracken explains, “Psalms give us words when we have none. They prompt us to sing a new song when we cannot find our own voice.” Join us as we learn not only how to read the Psalms, but take time to soak them in.
