A sermon on Psalm 126 by Dave Wintsch

The life of faith is a pilgrimage in which we step out into the void in order to journey with God and others.  The first step of that journey is to acknowledge what's broken and what needs to be left behind.  In this sermon, Pastor Bill explores what Psalm 120 reveals about why we ache for a better world, and where we find motivation to seek it.
