Podcasts about ascents

Psalm 120 opens the Songs of Ascents—a playlist for God's people on their journey to Jerusalem. This first song doesn't begin with joy but with honesty: “In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered me.”In this message, Pastor Eric Kuykendall reminds us:Calling out to God in distress is biblical.Expecting God to hear and answer is biblical.Lies and hostility surround us, but God's truth and peace remain.As we walk through the Songs of Ascents together, Psalm 120 sets the tone: worship isn't about pretending everything is fine—it's about bringing our real selves before God and trusting Him.

This Sunday, we continued our journey through the Song of Ascents. We were reminded that in Psalm 124 that if the Lord had not been on our side, we would have been swallowed up by life's storms. These ancient “Songs of Ascent” were survival songs—words sung by God's people as they journeyed step by step toward His presence. They teach us something powerful: in every situation we face, we have a choice. We can descend into blame, pride, and entitlement—or we can ascend toward humility, gratitude, and faith. The songs we sing with our lives matter. Gratitude, thankfulness, and humility in the midst of suffering are what set followers of Jesus apart from the world.We live in a culture that when things get hard or difficult it is working to move you towards blame and victimhood, but God calls us to fight for a different algorithm—a way of living shaped by responsibility, gratitude, and dependence on Him. When we ascend, we discover God's presence in the silence, His protection in the storm, and His power in our weakness. Let's be a people who keep moving toward Him, singing songs of faith together as we go. As Psalm 124 closes, may this be our declaration: “Our help is in the name of the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.”For more info, you can go to our website, check us out on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube.

Justin Wimmer grew up between Aotearoa and Europe, skiing in Austria and climbing in New Zealand from a young age while also being involved in YSAR. He shares the story of setting two new alpine routes in Aoraki National Park - Mount Lindenfeld and Mount Haast - with storms, rime ice, and long glacier approaches to climb remote rock and ice walls. Justin also talks about essential gear for beginners and reflects on risk and the alpine culture in New Zealand.Discover the best of New Zealand with my NZ Map & Guide, featuring 100+ incredible locations for your next adventure.

8/17/25 - A Survey Of The Songs Of Ascents - Pastor David McMurray - Various Psalms

We continue our Closer series on the Songs of Ascents with Psalm 131, a psalm of humility and trust. The psalmist turns from pride and self-reliance, learning instead to rest in God with a calm and quiet heart. Join us as we explore what it means to put down pride and cultivate true contentment in Him!

Today, we're doing something a little different. For the first time ever, I'm releasing a TCM Legacy Episode—diving back into one of the show's earliest conversations, this one with Joshua Reinig.It's been over three years since this episode first aired, and a lot has changed since then. For some of you, you'll hear a familiar voice—my previous co-host, Max Carrier. But the biggest changes are in Josh's own life, and those changes are exactly why I'm bringing you this newly remastered version of our conversation.I first met Josh over a decade ago, during my very first year of climbing, when he invited me—a complete gumby—out to one of his first ascent projects. Whether he realized it or not, that simple act of kindness shaped me as a climber, and I'm still grateful for it today. I also know I'm not the only one he's impacted in that way.Since then, Josh and I have become close friends, following each other's life stories closely. Over the course of his climbing career, Josh has put up more than 2,000 first ascents and currently sits in the top 20 Mountain Project contributors. His routes often focus on safe, moderate climbing that everyone can enjoy. He's an AMGA apprentice rock and alpine guide with over 6,000 guided trips under his belt. It's safe to say he's dedicated a huge portion of his life to serving the climbing community.One of the main reasons for revisiting this conversation is some exciting news—Josh has just published the most comprehensive guidebook to the Alabama Hills climbing area. This 300-page book features over 700 routes, more than 100 of which are his own first ascents. It's packed with detailed route descriptions, maps, and photos, the product of more than five years of work and documentation. With Alabama Hills now federally recognized as a scenic wildlife area, Josh also includes important guidance on how we can all respect and preserve this fragile place.For Josh, this guidebook is just another extension of what he's always done—sharing climbing with others. He gives huge thanks to Marty and Sharon for mentoring him through the process, and to his wife, Melissa, who played a major role in the documentation and creative work.When I first heard about the guidebook, I offered to have Josh back on the show in person. But unfortunately, Josh has recently been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. The details of his prognosis are still unfolding, but he faces a difficult road ahead—one that may include surgery, chemo, and all the challenges that come with fighting cancer. The location of the cancer has already made speaking difficult, so joining me for a new conversation just wasn't possible.As someone who has spent his life supporting the climbing community, Josh now needs our support. The best way to help is to purchase his Alabama Hills guidebook—link in the show notes. You can also donate directly via his GoFundMe, like I have. And if nothing else, please take a moment to send Josh your thoughts, prayers, or positive energy during this time.----HELP SUPPORT THE SHOW & GET ACCESS TO EXCLUSIVE EPISODES!  For a little as $5/mo!----Don't forget to check out our full video episodes on Youtube!---ResourcesBuy The Alabama Hills GuidebookSupport Joshua on his Go Fund Me PageJoshua Reinig's Mountain Project Profile

This Song of Ascents uses imagery from Israel's landscape to reassure everyone who trusts in the LORD that they are safe and secure. The source of this safety and security is the LORD Himself, who keeps and surrounds His people. These truths should serve as a source of great comfort and encouragement to believers facing trials because of the wickedness of others.

In her sermon on Psalm 121, Melanie Neely shares how this powerful "Song of Ascent" reminds us that our help comes from the Lord who never slumbers nor sleeps. Through personal stories about her mother's "Kingdom Day" and her own painful kidney stone experience, Melanie reveals seven "pearls" of wisdom from this psalm, emphasizing how God hears our cries, provides human helpers, and keeps us like a vigilant shepherd who never sleeps—the Hebrew word "shamar" appearing repeatedly as God's promise of watchful protection.#Psalm #SermonSeries #Poems #Prayers #PearlsOfWisdom #GodHearsOurCries #Shamar #GodProtects

Were you aware that Psalms 120-134 were sung by groups of Jewish worshipers on their way up to Jerusalem for the High Holy Days? In fact, your bible likely subtitles each of them ‘A Song of Ascents'. It is believed that Jewish worshipers would travel in groups, families and sometimes entire villages, singing these Psalms along the way of the Holy City. But even more interesting, these 15 songs span the entire Christian journey from salvation to glorification passing through the ups and downs of sanctification. They take us from the valley of repentance, to the heights of Christian joy. Step by step, we are urged onward and upward in these Songs of Ascents, learning endurance in the face of constant opposition. What we need is a guide and a friend to help us along the way. Both of them will be found in these fifteen Psalms. Come along as we climb the hill together, onward and upward to our eternal joy!

Psalms 123 and 124. These two Songs of Ascents urge us to recognize our deep need for a reliance on God. The authors address the struggles we face, yet they also illuminate the profound joys and blessings that come from being members of His holy people. In this study, Evangelists Jacob Holman and Gavin Williams examine how these psalms remind us of the comfort and strength found in our faith and the joys and blessings of being a part of the cherished spiritual family of God.

Psalm 134 (YLT)Andrew and Edwin once again see the importance of Zion in the Ascents Songs, they see the church in the psalm, and also find Jesus.Read the written devo that goes along with this episode by clicking here.    Let us know what you are learning or any questions you have.
