Ecclesiastes 3 reminds us that we are creatures of time, living in seasons we do not choose and rhythms we did not write. There is a time to be born and a time to die, a time to weep and a time to laugh. In this message, we explore what it means to receive life's limits as a gift, to recognize beauty in its season, and to acknowledge the longing for eternity that God has placed in our hearts. As we face the fog of time, we are invited to trust the eternal God whose love endures forever in Jesus Christ.

Ecclesiastes begins with a startling diagnosis: life “under the sun” can feel like smoke: fleeting, frustrating, and impossible to hold. In this Ash Wednesday message, we explore the way this book punctures our illusions about control, success, and satisfaction. Yet Ecclesiastes also invites us to look beyond the smokiness of life to the truth about our fragility, and we hold fast to the deeper hope that God entered our dust in Jesus Christ, and in Him our lives are not vapor, but held.

Psalm 150 brings the book of Psalms to a climactic close with a call for every living thing to praise the Lord. The message explores why singing and praise are central to the Christian life, not because God needs our praise, but because we need to be reoriented toward Him. As praise lifts our eyes beyond ourselves, we discover again the good news of Jesus Christ, who frees us to join the song already rising throughout creation. 

Today we continue our Psalms series, Songs from the Struggle. In this service, we are joined by songwriter and storyteller Andrew Peterson, who will help shed light on our theme through both wisdom and music. 

Psalm 126 is a song for people who remember joy but are living in the middle of tears. It invites us into a costly hope, the kind that keeps planting seeds even when the future feels uncertain. In this message, we explore what it means to trust God's long faithfulness, to sow in faith when we cannot yet see the harvest, and to believe that the God who has brought restoration before will do so again through Christ.

Psalm 103 calls us to bless the Lord with all that isa within us. In a world shaped by divided attention and partial devotion, this psalm invites us into a fuller, deeper way of life with God. This message explores how remembering God’s benefits, trusting God’s character, and receiving God’s grace in Christ draws our whole selves into Praise.

What do we do with the weight of time, loss, and uncertainty? Psalm 90 is a prayer written

for moments when life feels fragile and overwhelming. In this message, we reflect on how

God meets us in our grief and invites us to entrust "all our days" to His steadfast love.

Through Scripture, lament, and the hope of Christ, we are reminded that even in our weakness, God is our dwelling place.

Psalm 84 is a song of longing: longing for home, for God's presence, and for the household where even the sparrow finds a place to rest. This message explores what it means to belong to God's people, even when the church feels disappointing. During Advent we remember that the Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us, calling us into a home that cannot be shaken.

Why do the wicked prosper while the faithful suffer? Psalm 73 begins with envy and ends with worship. This message explores what to do when God doesn’t meet our expectations, and how worship reshapes disappointment into trust. When every plan fails, we discover that God Himself is enough.

What is blessing for? Psalm 67 shows us that God blesses his people not as a reward, but as a gift meant to flow outward in praise and service to the nations. This message explores the dangers of blessing without gratitude, the call to global mission, and the grace that makes blessing possible. In Christ, God’s mercy flows as far as the curse is found.
