Psalm 137 & Psalm 126
The Gifts and Griefs of Exile

The theme of 'home and exile' runs through the whole Bible. It's a helpful way for us to understand what God has been doing in and through us during our long lockdowns as we've been unable to gather together for corporate worship. Through the experience of exile come both grief and gifts. This sermon explores some of the griefs and gifts of exile through Psalm 137, Psalm 126, and our own experience through long COVID lockdowns. (Advent 1)
