Hard times can push us to our limit and cause us to wonder if God is aware and able to rescue us from our problems and stresses in life.

And Psalm 124 is a great reminder that God doesn't go off and abandon us, He rescues us from the mouth of the monster and the dangerous flood threatening our existence.

The truth of God's rescue, that God's people sing in the face of challenging situations, is a group effort to remind and encourage us to praise the God who rescues us for His Glory and our good.  

We need to keep encouraging one another to keep praising the God who loves us eternally in Jesus Christ and has rescued us forever through the Blood of His Only Son as we walk together with Jesus on our way home.

What VALUE would you place on the importance of getting all together as God's people for WORSHIP?  Worship is the topic of Chapter 5, in Eugene Peterson's book, A Long Obedience in the Same Direction.

On today's podcast, Tyler and Ryan discuss how getting together as God's people to worship Him is what we were MADE FOR!  Worshipping together also gives us a peace, a joy, a sense that everything is going to be okay, and that NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.  

It's amazing that declaring God's praises and worth with our mouths, words, and minds, together can have such a huge impact on our lives as followers of Jesus.  Worshipping keeps us unified and on track in our lives with Jesus.

Allow God to encourage and challenge you through the podcast today to WORSHIP HIM TOGETHER each week!  Let's keep saying to each other, "LET'S GO TO WORSHIP!"

Repenting is the beginning of a beautiful grace filled JOURNEY.  But what is repentance, REALLY?

Joel and Ryan talk about how getting fed up with this world...sick and tired of how things are...is the beginning of the Path to the Father by WAY of JESUS!  

REPENTANCE is what Psalm 120 is all about and how God's people began their journey to Jerusalem for the HIGH HOLIDAYS three times a year.  

They left realizing that this world is filled with LIARS and they were for PEACE.  That placed them as PILGRIMS on God's ROAD to the place where God's Presence dwelled.  And that's exactly where WE want to find ourselves, on a journey together to God.

Worshipping God is a journey, not a destination.  And worship is meant to be more than just words that come out of our mouths.  Worship should be the cry of our hearts in RESPONSE to GOD'S love for us in Jesus Christ.

So how can we continue to pursue God in praise and stay out of the rut of routine?  Rob, Holly, and Ryan discuss how to continue growing to worship God in spirit and in truth while living in this world where we don't always feel like worshipping God.

Worship is more than following our feelings.  Worship is really a choice.  And as we prepare to work through the book, A Long Obedience in the Same Direction by Eugene Peterson, we will find that praise through the Psalms of Ascent (Psm. 120-134) is fuel in our tank to keep us tracking together ON OUR WAY HOME!

How can we GO and BE the followers that Jesus wants us all to BE?

Living life together on mission with Jesus in each other's lives is the way Jesus wants us to live.  But we cannot live this life on our own, we need the Holy Spirit and we need each other.

Joel and Ryan wrap up the book, Come and See, talking about how BEING isn't just positive thinking or a formula to follow.  

Going and BEING is  more like relying on Jesus in REAL RELATIONSHIPS with one another.  When we're doing this, we will be able  to see Jesus transforming us slowly but surely through our lives BEING lived together.
