September 18, 2011 National Back to Church Sunday

Welcome Home

Psalm 122

Synopsis: Today is National Back to Church Sunday. This is an interdenominational church movement to encourage people who may have not been to church in a while to give church another chance. It is also a great occasion to review why we are here and what we expect to happen when we gather together in Jesus’ name.

Psalm 122 is one of pilgrim Psalms of ascent. It is not for the journey as much as it is for the arrival, “here we are”. Psalms 120-134 are all Psalms for pilgrims making their way to the House of the Lord. Believers can learn a lot from them. How does one prepare and what does one do when they actually get to the House of the Lord. Where is that house?

There is something about The House of the Lord that believers recognize as home. Come join us on a believers journey home.

Scripture Text (NLT): Psalm 122; 10-134
