But they also invite us to let the presence of God reshape those emotions so that we can pursue justice without becoming consumed by violence.\nPsalm 7 ultimately asks a difficult question:\nDo we want a God modelled after our anger—or will we allow our anger to be transformed by God’s righteousness?\nRecorded at Commons Church in Calgary, Alberta.\n#Psalm7 #Psalms #Bible #Sermon #CommonsChurch #Justice #Faith","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/uxKfzWwb4rzSxIpOPsfeKUfqtnGLeRcjApsL-tKueYk/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85YmRi/YzU5ZWMzNjJiZTU5/NDQ3M2FmNmVlODlk/ZGJjNy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
