Psalm 97

Jul 5, 2026 • Roy Stokes

This summer we will preach through Psalm 93-105. While studying these Psalms, you will see several repeated themes. For example, this section (Psalms 93:1 and 104:1) begins and ends with the LORD clothed in splendor and majesty. From these passages, we will rejoice together as we worship the holy, majestic, glorious, eternal, righteous King of Kings as we declare His wondrous deeds throughout history.
