Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The world is a difficult place for Christians to navigate. We are constantly being bombarded with temptations that come from the flesh, the world, and the devil.

#2 The world’s way of life is difficult for a pastor to deal with. Everyone is in a hurry. They want shortcuts, and they are impatient for results. A pastor is not a tour guide.

#3 The fifteen psalms that make up the Songs of Ascents were most likely sung by Hebrew pilgrims as they went up to Jerusalem to the great worship festivals. They were a way for the people to express the amazing grace and to quiet their anxious fears.

#4 The Songs of Ascents are a collection of psalms that were used by the multitudes who said, Come, let's climb God's mountain, go to the House of the God of Jacob. He'll show us the way he works so we can live the way we're made.
