Gladness in God.

Five days in Psalm 122

Psalm 122 begins with a glad yes to an invitation and ends with a prayer for a whole city. Over five days, walk with the pilgrims through this Song of Ascent and find joy in going up to meet with God.

The joy of being invited into God's house
Praising God together as one people
Praying for the peace of the city
Peace that moves from hearts to homes to neighborhoods

For anyone who wants to rediscover joy in worship and a heart for their city.
