Our scripture text this morning comes from Revelation chapter 5. We’ve already read and have sung some of these songs of the redeemed in Revelation 4 and 5, and at our Good Friday service on Friday afternoon we preached from the first eight verses in Revelation chapter 5, and now we’re going to continue with […]
Sin Offerings
Singing a New Song
Singing a New Song
What a joyous and hopeful song we have just sung. When the race is complete, still my lips shall repeat, yet not I but through Christ in me. So, Father, we look to Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, that He might speak to us, that we might hear His voice as the sound of […]
Singing the Psalms
Siren of Judgment, Whispers of Grace
O Lord, we are debtors to mercy alone. We are, left to ourselves, sinners and rebels. We are traitors and wanderers. We are, as the old prayer book says, miserable offenders. We ask now for Your mercy, mercy that You would not be silent, but that You would speak, and mercy that we would have […]

Sometimes the Good Guys Don’t Win
Son, Do You Know I Still Love You?
Souls Under the Altar
Father in heaven, we ask that we would have ears to hear this word. It’s from Your Word, so it’s true and it’s good and it’s helpful, but it’s also hard and sobering. So help us to listen and help us to obey whatever you call us to do in this life and even in […]
