A Song of Praising

March 8, 2026 | Psalm 122 | Aberdeen Livingstone

The season of Lent is kind of like going on a pilgrimage. It’s a season of 40 days, patterned on how Jesus spent 40 days wandering and fasting in the wilderness – and as Lent leads us towards the cross and the empty tomb, it carves out space in our hearts to long for Jesus’ presence. During the time of the Old Testament, God’s people would go on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem three times a year – but they didn’t make that journey in silence! They turned to the Psalms to create a road trip playlist of songs for the journey.

This week, we are pleased to welcome back Aberdeen Livingstone from the Artizo Institute. Aberdeen preaches from Psalm 122, and invites us to discover the joy we find on our journey. As we join in singing this song, it leads our hearts to start anticipating the destination as we continue travelling towards the cross and the empty tomb.
