Finding Perspective Changes Everything - Dr. John Ortberg

About this sermon

Sometimes you need to stop moving long enough to notice where you actually are. In this reflection on Psalm 100, John Ortberg pulls over at a vista point and invites us to create a “vista point” in our own day: pause, look around, notice the beauty and goodness of God, and make a joyful noise. John also shares the remarkable story of a $3 thrift-store jersey that turned out to be worth $90,000. It looked discarded, but it was a treasure. Maybe you need that reminder too. You are not self-made. You are the work of a master craftsman. So pause today. Look around. Say “Wow.” Say “Thank You.” And don't miss the view.
