Psalm 122:1-9
Intro/Attention
We are about halfway through our church-wide emphasis during the summer entitled, Impact: 40 days of eternal significance. We are learning what it means to make an impact for the sake of the gospel of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God.

I was overwhelmed and overjoyed at the same time. I was filled with awe and filled with pride. I was reminded that it's an incredible city. Such history. Such impact. Such importance. You know what God impressed o ...
