In this week's sermon by Ridley Barron, the focus was on Psalm 23, emphasizing the presence of God in the midst of darkness and fear. Barron shared a personal conversation about leaning into Jesus during difficult times. The imagery of God preparing a table in the presence of enemies was presented as a reality for those who trust in the shepherd, and the unbreakable bond between believers and Christ was highlighted through the concept of dwelling in the house of the Lord forever.
