God's people are commanded to assemble on His Holy Days. Assembling requires effort to go to the the place God has placed His name. Assembling in Jerusalem involved significant uphill effort. As the participants made their way up the mountain, they recited/sang the Psalms of Ascent, which was their "playlist" for the journey. This sermon draws practical lessons from these psalms as we keep God's festivals.
