sunday livestream
The Livestream is set to go live at 10:55AM Central Standard Time. Church begins at 11:00.
Psalm 136 is known in Jewish tradition as the Great Hallel, meaning the Great Praise. Every other line of the psalm is the reminder that "God's steadfast love endures forever." In a way, it's a reflective speed bump, forcing you to slow down and anchor every big-historical event and every small-daily event in God's steadfast, covenant love.
Psalm 136:1-26

The New City Catechism
Q. 22 Why must the Redeemer be truly human?
Children: That in human nature he might on our behalf perfectly obey the whole law and suffer the punishment for human sin.
Adults: That in human nature he might be on our behalf perfectly obey the whole law and suffer the punishment for human sin; and also that he might sympathize with our weaknesses.
