Join us on the journey of faith this summer as we enter into the Psalms of Ascent, walking with, towards, and through Jesus as a faith family. To do that, we'll use A Long Obedience in the Same Direction by Eugene Peterson to be a guide through the Psalms of Ascent, and see how they reach forward towards both the New Testament and us today.
