Songs of Ascent

Summer is here, and that means were back into the Psalms. This year, we begin a grouping of Psalms called the “Songs of Ascent”, hymns that would have been sung by the people of God as on their pilgrimage to Jerusalem three times each year.

Why “Christ in the Psalms?” The Psalms give us a vocabulary and a “hymnal” for relating to God through the full range of human experience and emotion, ultimately pointing us to Jesus. This annual series, now in its eleventh year, is called “Christ in the Psalms.”
