Contemplation

Adoration is a practical skill, one we need to engage in if we’re going to grow into the people God designed us to be.
Psalm 27 teaches us about individual, personal, contemplative adoration. And in the center of Psalm 27, it says, “one thing I ask, one thing I seek.” What is that one thing?
We learn three things from this psalm about this one thing: 1) why it’s so important, 2) what it is, and 3) how to do it.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on June 2, 2002. Series: Psalms: Disciples of Grace. Scripture: Psalm 27:1-14.
