Psalm 34 | A Response to the Silver Rail Tragedy
In this sermon, Pastor Blaine sets aside his notes to walk the church through Psalm 34 in the immediate aftermath of the tragic shooting at Silver Rail Elementary School. He points to a God who is near to the brokenhearted rather than distant in grief, and addresses honestly where God's justice is when evil feels unanswered. Drawing on 1 Corinthians 15, he pushes back on the well-meaning but hollow claim that death has no sting today — it does sting, but it is not the end of the story. He closes with practical counsel for showing up for hurting people without having the answers, for telling your kids the truth, and for carrying hope into a city that badly needs it.
