A Song for Missing Home

Hello and welcome to Christchurch Xscape's 'Live at 5' Sunday
service!


We're starting a new series 'Psalms of Ascent' today. Literally,
the songs the Hebrews' sang as they went up the dusty paths of
Judea to the temple in Jerusalem. A bit like fisherman who sing
shanties or slaves singing the blues, these were songs to keep
you going, remind you who you are, point you in the right
direction or to get you home. There's a spiritual ascent too...
they cover the highs and lows of life... and they're Psalms, so
it's done in a personal, real kind of way... but they always
direct the singer towards God, they always point up. 


As always, please get in touch hello@xchurch.org.uk


Reading: Psalm 120
