Music Mondays

Our latest series in the Psalms naturally compliments Music Mondays. The Psalms are a compilation of ancient worship hymns from the Israelites. 

They don't always fit our modern idea of 'worship' though. Many take complaining and frustrated tones as the author pleads with God for justice and victory over his enemies. Some extol the virtues of a human king God has put on the throne. But to be sure, many do match our idea of what worship is, including Psalm 139.

We played this selection from Rebeca St. James during our offering and it appropriately matches this Psalms wonder and joy at who God is and how he loves us. Whoever compiled the video selected a fitting image to of a calm sea, as it matches the music of the song and the perspective of Psalm 139. 

Whatever your week has ahead for you, hopefully you can pause and consider the wonder of our God.
